Hi! I am currently trying to resinstall tetex after removing my older fink install (when I did an update yesterday all my packges became marked "obsolescent" and I could not find a way to install more recent one directly with dselect). I then installed fink 0.4a. All went well until trying to install tetex. SInce the binary in dselect cannot be installed I used fink commander to install : tetex-macosx All seems to work fine until the final installation steps:

I looked at the Makefile in teTeX-1.0 and it is clear that it should be /sw/bin: > prefix = /sw > exec_prefix = ${prefix} > datadir = ${prefix}/share > bindir = ${exec_prefix}/bin since this command realy point to ${bindir}: > $(srcdir)/selfautofix "$(bindir)" "$(texmf)/web2c" > cd $(bindir); for i in $(ALLPROGS); do test -f $$i && { echo strip > $$i; strip $$i || true; }; done; true something seems to perturb the $prefix variable but I could not find where. I have Mac OS X 1.5 with all fixes from Apple to date and the december 2001 system tools. -- Paul Indelicato, ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
