Removing build lock...
/sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait -r fink-buildlock-xpaint-2.7.0-11
...and indeed there is no /sw/src/fink.build/root-xpaint-2.7.0-11/etc
though there is /sw/src/fink.build/root-xpaint-2.7.0-11/sw/etc as one would
expect (populated with app-defaults stuff).
...and there is probably a
/sw/src/fink.build/root-xpaint-2.7.0-11/usr/X11R6/etc, I guess? And you are
using one of Fink's packages for X11, not Apple's?
Nope and yup:
/sw/src/fink.build-10> ls root-xpaint-2.7.0-11/
0 ./ 0 ../ 0 DEBIAN/ 0 sw/
/sw/src/fink.build-11> ls root-xpaint-2.7.0-11/sw/
0 ./ 0 ../ 0 bin/ 0 etc/ 0 share/
no usr/X11R6 in the root-xpaint tree anywhere... and yes,
I'm using Xorg compiled with fink and /etc/X11 is a symlink.
This is a bug in the xpaint package. I don't understand why it tries to mv
the /etc and /usr directories instead of just "rm -rf"ing them. The Fink X11
packages for some historical reason don't have /etc/X11 as a real directory,
only as a symlink, and they transmit this structure to programs built with
xmkmf, so there is then no /etc directory in the buildroot.
Maybe something happens in the wrong order (trying to mv
after rm -f)?
