The issue of build failures from development libraries in /usr/local seems to come up endlessly. I have wondered if there is some way that a 'strict' build mode could be introduced into fink. The idea would be for packages known to commonly suffer from this issue, the info file could invoke a strict mode during the fink build process where fink would first look for headers or static libraries in /usr/local. If found, the build would abort with a clear message that /usr/local needs to be moved aside. Unless the package maintainer included the strict build keyword in the info file, this check would not normally occur. Jack
