Hi all, a few days ago I saw someone on the list advise the use of debfoster for removing packages that had been installed as dependencies of no longer present packages, and I decided to give it a try, and it broke msmtp-ssl (I can no longer use it nor rebuild it).
First, debfoster seems to have removed (at least) one package needed for msmtp, because when I try to send an e-mail I get the following error message: dyld: msmtp can't open library: /sw/lib/libgsasl.7.dylib (No such file or +directory, errno = 2) (indeed I remember debfoster proposing me to remove packages with gsasl9 in their names, and I accepted) I therefore tried to rebuild msmtp-ssl. It claimed it needed the following packages: The following package will be rebuilt: msmtp-ssl The following 10 additional packages will be installed: gnutls gnutls-shlibs gsasl9 gsasl9-dev libgpg-error libidn libidn-shlibs libtasn1 libtasn1-shlibs lzo Then the build failed on gnutls (I think) with the following error: <snip> gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I/sw/include -I/sw/include -no-cpp-precomp -I/sw/include -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE -I/sw/include -I/sw/include -c gc-libgcrypt.c -o gc-libgcrypt.o >/dev/null 2>&1 /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE -I/sw/include -I/sw/include -L/sw/lib -o libgc.la pkcs5.lo gc-libgcrypt.lo -L/sw/lib -lgcrypt -L/sw/lib -lgpg-error -lz grep: /sw/lib/libpth.la: No such file or directory sed: /sw/lib/libpth.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/sw/lib/libpth.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[2]: *** [libgc.la] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 ### execution of make failed, exit code 2 Removing build lock... dpkg -r fink-buildlock-gnutls-1.2.4-1 (Reading database ... 103286 files and directories currently installed.) Removing fink-buildlock-gnutls-1.2.4-1 ... Failed: phase compiling: gnutls-1.2.4-1 failed A second run of 'fink install msmtp-ssl' ended with the same error. I have made a query on the mailing list archives for libpth.la, as it seems the key problem here, and I got no results. Does anyone have clue on how I might solve this? Additionally, I would like to know if there are any special precautions to take when using debfoster? Did I do something wrong when using it? (I just launched the command 'debfoster' and answered yes or no when it prompted me to keep or remove packages) --------- fink --version Package manager version: 0.24.7 Distribution version: 0.7.2.rsync System: mac os 10.3.8 Cheers, Clemence ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
