I found your message below wrt compiling unison under Mac OSX. Did you ever find a solution? I need 2.9.20.
Yes, in so far as whatever needed tweaking got tweaked and it worked next time I tried it. But only 2.9.1 is available through fink, so if you want 2.9.20 you'll need to contact the maintainer, who is listed as Christopher League <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Or make it work yourself (take a look at the fink docs on their website for how to tweak fink things...).
The fink patch file is quite short for unison-2.9.1 so hopefully only minor tweaking will be needed for the newer version.
Alternatively (assuming it isn't for a new feature in 2.9.20) you could get unison-2.9.1 onto the system you need to sync with. Since the binary is stand alone, and you only need it available to you when you log in, it can be in your own home dir if you set your path correctly.
I'm Cc'ing this to the finkusers list in case anyone there already has 2.9.20 working, but it just hasn't made it into fink yet. Since unison is so fussy about compatible versions, it would need to become a package with explicit version number, so people can choose the version that matches their situation.
unison is a great tool, I use it on a daily basis between mac and linux systems.

additional packages will all install in one go without a
hitch??)
P.S. it did: well done to all gnome finkers!!!
