As far as I know, I haven't altered the system perl - strictly hands-off (since I ran into many problems back in the Tiger days). Additional modules (and updated modules) are installed into a user-space tree (i.e., no sudo's). Because of a need to keep compatibility with various other architectures and OS's (a couple solaris versions, multiple Fedora and Debian linux versions), perl is accessed via a series of links, perl = /foo/perl -> /foo/perlwrap -> /usr/bin/perl On other systems, /foo/perlwrap is a script which figures out where perl lives, but here, it is simply a symlink to the system perl. I tried going back to basics, reinstalling fink from scratch, but: . binary install - I run aground on % sudo fink install gettext-tools Information about 3995 packages read in 1 seconds. Can't resolve dependency "fink (>= 0.28.0)" for package "gettext-tools-0.14.5-4" (no matching packages/versions found) Exiting with failure. Apparently, the binary stuff is still back at 0.27.16 and some package(s) assume 0.28... (I think the gettext-tools install came about via an attempt to install evince.) . source install (rsync version) - I run into the same problem as noted below - failures in the noted tests. Thanks.
