I'm having a problem with bits of fontconfig: firefox gives 
the following bus error:
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
/sw/lib/firefox2/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 81695 Bus error 
"$prog" ${1+"$@"}

fink list fontconfig gives:

*i*  fontconfig-conf  2.4.1-4      configuration files for 
fontconfig
  i   fontconfig-path  20071103-1   Add custom directories to

I think I need to get rid of that top one with the *i* but 
I'm not having any luck with variants on "fink purge..." 
-- what magic incantation should I try?  Or are there old 
config files in my home dir I need to blow away (I tried 
moving aside the obvious font-related ones, .fontconfig and 
.fonts.cache-1).

This is 10.5.2 PPC with a fink installation that was 
upgraded from 10.4 along with the machine quite a while ago. 
I just installed firefox2 (having had similar problems with 
fireox1.5).  I also can't update fontconfig2:

fink install fontconfig2-shlibs
Information about 6674 packages read in 2 seconds.
Can't resolve dependency "system-xfree86-dev (>= 2:7.2-1)" 
for package
"fontconfig2-dev-2.4.1-102" (no matching packages/versions 
found)

Note: I have xorg installed on this machine:
  i   system-pkgconfi  1.4.0.90-1   [virtual pkgconfig 
package representing x...
*i*  xorg             6.8.2-1044   Free X11 implementation
*i*  xorg-shlibs      6.8.2-1044   Free X11 implementation

but no info files for it (because it was installed before 
they disappeared from the 10.5 version of the tree I think).
I also have the Leopard X11, probably 2.1.4, with the X11R6 
simlink removed so they can coexist.

I have selfupdated and mostly updated the rest of the 
packages.  Half a dozen that have to build on 10.5 are left 
because I don't really want to chew up processor time on the 
oldish iMac when I'll have a G5 PPC machine set up to do the 
work in a week or so.

I have another PPC machine with similar setup (TiBook) on 
which everything works.  I haven't done a detailed 
comparison yet (one is at home, one at work) but I can do 
this if the problem proves hard to crack.

Package manager version: 0.28.1
powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. 
build 5465)

cheers,
