hey all
reading a great article on LaTeX at http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2004/02/03/latex.html got me really interested in trying it out. so i installed LaTeX via fink, and it all worked fine. but i suppose i wanted some sort of x-11 interaction with it all, and from my limited knowledge, it appeared as though 'auctex' is what i wanted. but this happened during that install:

Try running these commands
sudo rm /sw/var/lib/fink/prebound/seg_addr_table* sudo /sw/var/lib/fink/prebound/update-package-prebinding.pl -f
and then try to install emacs20 again.
okay. i purged what i'm assuming to be the old prebinding table and force-created a new one? that all went fine.
then, i tried reinstalling emacs. looks like the same result:
% sudo apt-get install emacs20
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Sorry, emacs20 is already the newest version.

.......................................................
so i opened up /sw/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-install
and tried finding the error on line 28, which is noted in the section below.
.......................................................
sub execute {
my(@cmd) = @_;
if($dry_run) {
print join(" ", @cmd) . "\n";
} else {
if(system(@cmd) != 0) {
[line28-->] die "emacs-$action: " . join(" ", @cmd) . " failed";
}
}
}........................................................
but i don't really understand perl, so perhaps there's a simple fix? or maybe this isn't the problem at all...
