Hi!
Yesterday I installed Fink and tried to install and launch gnucash and gnumeric. Gnucash shows a dynamic link error and won't launch.
Can you post the specific error? Likely it's a missing dependency, but we cant tell you what package it is unless you tell us what claims to be missing.
Gnumeric gives the message that it can't open the display.
This is because you have to start X11 (whatever variant you're using) first: http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-general.php#no-display
When I installed Fink I didn't realize that Virex 7.2 created problems for Fink. I have removed all of Virex 7.2 I know how to remove. How do I remove the path it creates for itself?
Actually, you're probably OK (e.g. you possibly had 7.2.1 or later rtather than just 7.2)--if the extra path were there Fink's installer wouldn't have let you install it at all.
Does anyone have any immediate solutions to the dynamic link and display problems? I am brand new to Fink and Fink Commander. My system is a dual processor G4 running at 867 Mhz. I am running version 10.3.7 of Apple's operating system. I can supply the exact error messages if necessary.
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.
