openmotif and lesstif are implementing different versions of the motif libraries. For this reason, you cannot switch the dependencies of other packages which depend on them. The openmotif-shlibs and lesstif-shlibs packages will coexist just fine, and provide the needed dynamic libraries for both kinds of packages. When you compile things, fink will switch between openmotif and lesstif as needed, automatically. The only thing you cannot do is issue a single fink command to compile several packages, some of which depend on openmotif and others of which depend on lesstif. You'll have to compile things in two groups. -- Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
