-- Hi,
At long last, I made the leap to Tiger (all the way from Jaguar).
I started from scratch and reinstalled everything; everything fink went
extremely smoothly. :-)
I do have a question, though: I installed python23, but didn't get a
/sw/bin/python, which is usually a link to /sw/bin/python2.3. I tried
python24, too, and had the same problem.
According to dpkg on my old box, /sw/bin/python is part of the "python"
package, but that seems to require python24 under this version of fink
and/or the package database.
So how do I get a /sw/bin/python that points to /sw/bin/python2.3? I
can make the link myself, but I can only believe that doing so is asking
for trouble down the road.
Thanks,
Dan
