Hello,
I had Fink with Tiger,
and I have recently updated to Leopard.
Now Fink fails to update packages.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
bash-3.2# fink update-all
Information about 6662 packages read in 2 seconds.
Can't resolve dependency "system-xfree86-dev (>= 2:7.2-1)" for package
"fontconfig2-dev-2.4.1-103" (no matching
packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I've read that Fink can migrate to Leopard using fink reinstall fink,
but it doesn't work in my case. It just stops without any error or
successful message:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
bash-3.2# fink reinstall fink
Information about 6662 packages read in 1 seconds.
The following package will be reinstalled:
fink
Reading buildlock packages...
/sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait -i
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386/base/fink_0.28.2-41_darwin-i386.deb
(S'està llegint la base de dades ... hi ha 110582 fitxers i directoris
instal·lats actualment.)
S'està preparant per a reemplaçar fink 0.28.2-41 (fent servir
.../fink_0.28.2-41_darwin-i386.deb) ...
S'està desempaquetant el reemplaç de fink ...
S'està configurant fink (0.28.2-41) ...
Checking system... i386-apple-darwin9.2.2
This is one of the first fink releases which can be used with Mac OS X
10.5. We support bootstrapping with this
version, and we expect that upgrading from 10.4 will go smoothly with this
version. However, DIRECT UPGRADING FROM
10.4-transitional, 10.3 OR EARLIER IS NOT SUPPORTED.
ln -s 10.5 /sw/fink/dists
Scanning package description files..........

What can be the problem of this migration?
Also, I see in the webpage that there is a source version of Fink,
compatible with Leopard.
If I install this new version, do I need to uninstall first my current Fink
version installed?
If I install this new version, will I need to reinstall all the software
currently installed by my current Fink?
Best regards,
DAvid
