Hi,
I'm running the X11 server provided by Apple in combination with the system-xfree86 placeholder. When doing a `fink update-all`, I run into the same problem others have mentioned in the fink-users and fink-beginners lists before.
When doing the update-all, fink first asks me which pango-xft version to use. As I'm running Xfree86 4.2, I choose pango1-xft1-dev. It then start to compile pango1-xft1-1.0.5-2, and gives me the following error :
You have Xft2 installed. This usually means you have XFree86 (>= 4.3) installed. pango1(-shlibs|-dev) cannot be built with Xft2. You should use pango1-xft2 package instead.
### execution of /var/tmp/tmp.0.FoSoiI failed, exit code 1 Failed: compiling pango1-xft1-1.0.5-2 failed
But, a simple `dpkg -l` shows me I don't have Xft2 installed.
Doing the same thing but choosing pango1-xft2 results in the installation of the Xfree86 server provided by fink. I'm not sure I want this.
Now I've seen several people running into the same problems on the mailinglists archives, but none of the solutions provided seem to help.
Can anybody give me a helping hand here ? :)
This means that you somehow have libraries from xfree86 4.3 installed, but you have xfree 4.2 installed over it. You can try removing /usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.2.* and run it again, but it's likely other things could get confused. Best bet would be to remove /usr/X11R6 altogether and re-install the apple X11, if you still have the installer package handy.
