That would work, and you can use that from within Fink. You don't even need to copy that source over (into /sw/src), though there's no reason not to do that. 1) Download the package description for proj-4.7.0 from http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/proj.info?revision=1.10 making sure to save it as just "proj.info" 2) Move this proj.info into /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo 3) Use fink install proj-4.7.0-1 proj-shlibs-4.7.0-1 to install this version. Another option, if your other machine is also using 10.6/i386 Fink, would be: 1) copy /sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386/sci/proj-shlibs_4.7.0-1_darwin-i386.deb and /sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386/sci/proj_4.7.0-1_darwin-i386.deb over from your other system to the one where you're having problems. Or download the copies that I've built and placed online from: http://akh.users.finkproject.org/debs/proj_4.7.0-1_darwin-i386.deb http://akh.users.finkproject.org/debs/proj-shlibs_4.7.0-1_darwin-i386.deb 2) Use sudo dpkg -i /path/to/proj_4.7.0-1_darwin-i386.deb /path/to/proj-shlibs_4.7.0-1_darwin-i386.deb (replacing /path/to with the actual path to the files) > Does it take time to correct the packages on fink usually?
