Looks like you have a weird mix of stable and unstable branches. gettext-dev-0.10.40-19 is from the stable branch: there's no libgettext3-dev in stable yet, so the gettext-dev there has not been configured to displace libgettext3-dev automatically. I have gettext-dev-0.10.40-24, from unstable, which is why I don't have the problem. At the end of selfupdate, fink installs "highest available version" of gettext-dev (as usual for the 'fink install' command). So the question is: why isn't your fink seeing the newer gettext-dev, given that it does see libgettext3-dev? Do you use only stable but manually copied gettext3's .info from unstable into your active tree? dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
