hi all,
Is there a problem with pdfslide installation from fink?
Issuing " fink install pdfslide" fails.
I am using Package manager version: 0.13.7 and Distribution version: 0.5.3.cvs
I have a preexisting latex installation (from fink: TeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159 ).
The log states "No compile needed" but perhaps it does after all?
Any insight is appreciated.
thanks, Avram
