Hi,
I've been unable to complete an update-all of kde using unstable under 10.3 for some time now. I've been watching the list and checked the bugs and it appears no one else has this problem. It looks as if the problem starts with "libtool: link: cannot find the library `/sw/lib/libncurses.la''"and in fact I don't have it in spite of rebuilding ncurses.
I'd appreciate knowing whether this is this a known problem or whether I'm messed up.

Hi,
Just in case anyone is interested, I've resolved this problem myself.
ncurses must be configured with '-with--libtool' before it will generate libncurses.la but as delivered ncurses.info doesn't contain this. Modifying ncurses.info to include '--with-libtool' revealed that the configuration script for ncurses doesn't like the libtool that's installed at /usr/bin and quits. I did a fink rebuild libtool and determined that libtool-1.3.5-13.info renames libtool to glibtool in /sw/bin. After I soft linked /sw/bin/glibtool to /sw/bin/libtool and did a fink rebuild ncurses, I finally have the libncurses.la required to get fink update-all to finish off the kde installation.
The result:
