Re: [Fink-users] Problems with installing certain packages (64 bit) on Mac OS 10.6

Hi Claus,

I've just run into the same troubles with inkscape...

this is actually a failure in building cairomm1, right?
I've found a patch for disabling that font definition in 64bit-builds,  
which is apparently

missing in Snow Leopard (originally for cairo-1.6.4, from
http://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo-bugs/2008-April/002240.html) 
,

and tried to apply it to cairomm1-1.8.2.
This allows cairomm1 and inkscape to build - it is running, but that's  
about all that

I tested, so proceed at your own risk...

Cheers,
Derek

Re: [Fink-users] matplotlib-py26 install trouble.

Hi,

I only came upon this thread after having some trouble with matplotlib  
myself...

I'm trying to install the new version of matplotlib-py26, but I get

I can't reproduce this on my 10.4/ppc machine with unstable activated
(dateutil-py26-1.4-1 matplotlib-py26-0.99.0-1) and with all packages
built locally by fink (vs downloaded precompiled .deb).


After some digging, I remembered that I'd built a pre-release of
matplotlib 0.98.something so that I could use some of the new 0.98.x
features.  When I did the build, I used the SVN version with "python
setupegg.py develop" to make following SVN changes easier.  This sets
up some symlinks and references in /site-packages back to the build
directory.

I removed fink's python2.6 and all *-py26 packages and matplotlib now
installs cleanly and seems to work fine.  Let this be a warning to
those who try to run on the bleeding edge!


Just wondering - by this do you mean you removed all the fink  
python2.6-libraries
and reinstalled them and afterwards succeeded in building matplotlib- 
py26,
or did you then compile matplotlib independently of fink? The latter  
does not

really sound like a solution to the fink package's problem...
What I found, also perhaps trying to be more on the bleeding edge, was  
that
matplotlib 0.99 and in particular 0.99.1 introduced a number of new  
configuration
settings, among others setting a default to try to install its own  
pytz and dateutil

in setup.cfg.
I managed to put a working package for 0.99.1.1 afterwards, attached  
below.


On this occasion, I am wondering if sending updated package  
descriptions to the
list, as I've done before, is the appropriate way, or whether I should  
rather send
them directly to the maintainer or simply be content to wait until  
they've checked in

their own updates or...

Whatever the correct upgrade path, I'd also like to make a suggestion  
at this point:
Is it possible to remove the numeric-py and numarray-py dependencies,  
perhaps at
least make them "Suggests:" or "Enhances:" instead? They are clearly  
no longer required
to build or use matplotlib (in fact I am not even sure if they are  
still officially supported as
backends, since that configuration option has been removed now), and I  
find it rather
painful to still being forced to keep two long outdated libraries  
installed.
I'd think anyone who still needs either of them for legacy routines or  
data would know

so on their own - just my 2d.

Cheers,
Derek

yes, I guess I assumed Kurt Schwehr might notice anyway, since he was  
posting in
this thread earlier, but I am CCing him directly now - probably safer  
than hoping he
constantly monitors the list for all packages he's maintaining.

Re: [Fink-users] mmap and Python on Fink

2010-05-13 Thread Derek Homeier
Hi Alexander, Buz,

I can confirm that this appears to be an issue with python2.5 on 10.6, and it's 
apparently 
an installation problem on the python side (64bit-installation in my case). 

> find /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework -name mmap*
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/mmap.so
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/mmap.so
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/mmap.so
> find /sw/lib/python2.6 -name mmap*
/sw/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/mmap.so
> find /sw/lib/python2.5 -name mmap*

 - nothing there. numpy.test() also fails on importing mmap. I could not track 
this much 
further down, embarrassingly I could not even reproduce how I had installed 
python2.5 
in the first place, as there was a python25_2.5.4-102 installed, but the 
package descriptions 
both in stable and unstable state:
Package: python25
Version: 2.5.4
Revision: 1
Epoch: 1
Distribution: 10.4, 10.5

(!)

Nb. this is a distribution bootstrapped on Snow Leopard in 64bit, never updated 
from 10.5.

I tried to investigate a bit further, so I updated the package in my local tree 
to 2.5.5 and, 
noticing that one difference between the python25 and python26 packages was the 
ConfigureParams: --enable-shared  field, I added this flag to the python25 
package as well. 
python-2.5.5 builds that way and appears to work (is there a generic .test() 
for the python 
interpreter itself?), but still does not install mmap.so. 

I am out or my depth here for now, so I am passing this one to whoever else 
might have 
another suggestion.

HTH,
Derek

I have built and tested the updated numpy and scipy versions on my machines, 
feel free to copy the adapted package files to your 
/sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo/sci 
and give them a try. 
Please note that I just modified them on my own, and Sebastien Maret, the 
maintainer, 
is not responsible for any problems you might encounter (though basically, 
numpy.test() and scipy.test() did not produce any errors not already present in 
the 1.3 and 0.7.0 versions on 10.5/6, python2.5/6, powerpc/i386/x86_64).

Derek

thanks for the pointer, you're quite right! 
Patching mmapmodule.c as you suggested worked. I am attaching the updated info 
and 
patch files (including the update to 2.5.5, as this is only a security fix 
release, there don't 
seem to be many other changes). Checking the build log revealed three other 
errors 
bypassed in the same way: ctypes, bsddb and resource are broken as well 
(all three do work in python2.5 on 10.5 and python2.6 on 10.6. ctypes and 
resource also 
work in OS X's /usr/bin/python2.5, but bsddb doesn't seem to be enabled - there 
probably 
is no Berkeley DB included in the system to begin with...)

For the moment, mmap at least would work, including scipy read_array. 
The rest is above my head for now, I am afraid.

Cheers,
Derek

[Fink-users] PGPLOT

2003-07-02 Thread Derek Homeier
Hi,

has anyone been able to link to the fink-pgplot library with the 
current g77?
I have g77-3.3-2, and it does not even build the cpgdemo when I rebuild 
pgplot.
First of all, the linker flags obviously need to be changed to contain
"-Xlinker -framework -Xlinker Foundation -Xlinker -framework -Xlinker 
AppKit",
but with this it still returns a

/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
restFP
saveFP
Any idea where to find these?

Thanks,

They are in /usr/lib/libgcc.a. Usually when this bug comes up, people

It works fine with this fix.  In fact, better in may respects (it works
if MACOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is set to 10.2, and it compiles more of the
testsuite).
One other problem which you will face linking PGPLOT is that g77 
doesn't
understand -framework.  To link a framework (such as vecLib or
Foundation), use cc as the linker.

Well, I just added the -Xlinker flags as in my original post.
All the pgdemos seemed to compile, and basically work, too, but there is
another problem (feature?) with the current xwin driver: the plot window
is only updated when it's focused, which makes the "animated" features
(e.g. pgdemo11) rather pointless. With the aquaterm driver this works,
but it seems to be extremely slow!
Thanks,
Derek

2012-09-14 Thread Derek Homeier
Hi,

building xephem-3.7.5-2 failed on a 4-core iMac running Mountain Lion due to 
concurrent 
make tasks. Adding 

UseMaxBuildJobs: False

solved the problem for me.

Cheers,
Derek

I just ran into a very similar problem after updating to Xcode 4.5. 
Noting that fink list showed xcode.app as version 4.5.1, while xcode was still 
at 4.4.0 
allowed me to realise that the command line tools had not been updated along 
with 
the main app (which really is extremely annoying - Apple might have a right to 
think 
not everyone using Xcode would want or need the command line tools; but if they 
ARE already selected and installed, to omit them from the update is just 
utterly stupid!).

However even though I had been through the whole process finding my way to go 
to 
the preferences and select the right tab etcetc. took a while, and I think one 
can easily 
get lost there… Even if fink certainly cannot install the tools on its own, 
perhaps it 
would help to include the information given by Martin to xcode.info as 
something like



This package represents the C/C++/ObjC developer tools
 provided by Apple.  If it does not show as installed,
 you can download Xcode (for OS 10.5, 10.6, and 10.7)
 or the Command Line Tools For Xcode (OS 10.7 or later)
 from Apple at:…

If you have already installed the Xcode toolset (xcode.app), 
these Tools are also embedded within the Xcode IDE and 
can be installed using the Downloads pane within the Xcode 
Preferences. You need to repeat this step after every update 
of the Xcode toolset.


[Ideally, `fink list xcode` should perhaps show xcode as outdated if xcode.app 
is 
installed in a newer version, but I don't know how feasible that is… Even after 
updating the command line tools, xcode still shows up as 4.5.0.0.1…. vs. 
xcode.app 4.5.1]

Cheers,
Derek

[Fink-users] pil-py*-1.7.8 install failure on case-sensitive filesystems

[Fink-users] numpy-py31 update failure

2013-11-18 Thread Derek Homeier
Hi,

last bug report for the day, I think. numpy 1.8 no longer supports Python3.1:

/sw/bin/python3.1 setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 27, in 
raise RuntimeError("Python version 2.6, 2.7 or >= 3.2 required.")
RuntimeError: Python version 2.6, 2.7 or >= 3.2 required.
### execution of /sw/bin/python3.1 failed, exit code 1

A Python3.3 version can be built without any other changes, so the Type: python 
() 
could simply be updated (and numpy 1.7.2 will still support 2.4-3.1).

Cheers,
Derek

As I mentioned, I got a lot more errors with 0.6.11, but I could check out 
0.6.12 now

No, this does not look correct - the source file, probably this
md5sum /sw/src/gettext-0.18.3.1.tar.gz  
 
3fc808f7d25487fc72b5759df7419e02  /sw/src/gettext-0.18.3.1.tar.gz

and the patch definitely should not have the same md5sum.
But it is a mystery to me why it would expect a completely different MD5,
and why this did not fail right at the beginning of the build with a wrong
MD5 for the source file. But apparently the package build was completed
and then only the buildlock removal failed, maybe something got messed
up in fink's internal database…
Can you check if it's still there with
fink list fink-buildlock-gettext-tools-0.18.1.1-1
^^^
Oh, just noticed this, that looks definitely odd - the PatchFile-MD5 in your 
info
file is for libgettext 1.18.3.1-2 (and for 1.18.2.1-1 it was 
0fc008bcbe67004c6f2bcbf5581ef1c3)
but the buildlock claims it's for 1.18.1.1-1, looks like it was left over from 
an old
update and maybe the info files had been updated in the meantime.
I'd try to remove it manually with 
fink remove fink-buildlock-gettext-tools-0.18.1.1-1
or "sudo dpkg -r …" and then try a "fink rebuild libgettext8-shlibs", see if 
that helps.
(But you want to make sure the Source-MD5 in the info file is correct for that).

BTW is it possible to modify something like the regional list of mirrors as 
well?
Currently some sites,most notoriously distfiles.ams.nl.eu.finkmirrors.net and
distfiles.hel.fi.eu.finkmirrors.net are down almost all the time, yet (at least 
with
MirrorOrder Master-First) fink keeps going back to them to download sources
and just gets no response, so on a larger update it is waiting every time for 
the
timeout and then for the timeout for the default next mirror choice unless one 
is
sitting by and intervenes manually during the download phase.

Thanks for getting this this far to work! I still could not install the .deb 
though because
the info file names were not matching, so I figured out the mangle-info script 
apparently
serves to point the entry in the “dir” file to the fink-modified path.
It would not work in gzipped files; as I did not have the nerve to polish my 
perl skill to
do that with "use IO::Zlib” and stuff, I fixed it the primitive way and also 
fixed the list
of info files. 
I was able to install the package now, browse some info files and load various 
modes
and auctex successfully. There is an apparently non-serious font error message 
when
starting auctex, but that can be fixed by upgrading to auctex 11.87 (can submit 
that to
the package tracker later).

Cheers,
Derek

it seems that your mail client has converted the line endings to DOS on saving

they should still work, but of course the checksum would have changed.
I’ve submitted the auctex update to

maybe downloading from there will preserve the text format.

Just discussed this on the devel list: there's an incompatibility with 
hdf5.8-18 that's been fixed in the .pyx/.pxd files, but not in the generated 
h5fd.c.
If you install cython-py34, it should work for now.

It explains the error. pykg-config is a Python2 package and not Python3-ready,

because all OS X system python versions are 2.7.x so far.
You should under NO circumstances replace system files (anything in /usr/bin | 
/usr/lib | /usr/include) with
3rd-party installations (including fink or anything installing under 
/usr/local, /opt etc…), or there is no
telling what on your system will break!
The best fix should be to restore the original /usr/bin/python from a backup; 
if you don’t have one the next
best thing might be to cp
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7 to 
/usr/bin/python
- the two binaries have different sizes on my system, but they are both 2.7.5, 
so I’d hope this could work
perhaps until the next software update.

Actually /usr/bin/python and /usr/bin/pythonw are identical binaries, so the 
latter would be a better recovery option.

Probably safest, and I guess it should not be too painful if you restore your 
user settings and/or have a full
Tim Machine backup.
Apple does have the sources available here

https://opensource.apple.com/tarballs/python/

so I guess in principle it might be possible to do an xcodebuild of the latest 
version, but I’d certainly search for
additional instructions if you are inclined to experiment with this path.

Re: [Fink-users] Failed: PatchFile "/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/matplotlib-py.patch" checksum does not match!

2010-08-06 Thread Derek Homeier

Hi there,

any progress with the matplotlib package? I am still also getting a  
patch file with
wrong md5sum on selfupdate, but I suspect it might be rather the  
updated patch
file is still missing from the repo than the patch updated without the  
checksum.


On 5 Aug 2010, at 16:34, Alexander Hansen wrote:


You're much better off running "fink index -f" first if you think you
have an incorrect  package description rather than removing files,
because fink normally uses a stored cache rather than the physical
files.  Occasionally there are situations where the cache doesn't get
updated even after the files change.

In this case, the package fails the md5 test because the patchfile got
updated without a corresponding update in the .info file.  The
appropriate thing to do in such cases is to contact the package
maintainer, since they are the ones who break and fix packages. :-)
(or in principle you could edit
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/matplotlib-py.info and  
change

the PatchFile-MD5 entry)

However, you probably don't want to do that, because I found some
problems with the patch (maintainer cc'ed). After changing the
PatchFile-MD5 I got:

[ -r /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/matplotlib-py.patch ]
sed 's|@PREFIX@|/sw|g' <
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/matplotlib-py.patch |

patching file setupext.py

Looks like the patch is not complete yet. I also found when trying to  
update on my own,
that mpl 1.0.0 needs an extra patch to build against fink's python  
rather than the
framework-based system python. The attached one allows it to build (on  
10.5 +  10.6

anyway), but of course the warning might still apply, so YMMV.
I also noted that matplotlib-py27, while it builds and runs this way,  
is not running very well,
i.e. mouse input in the plot window has basically no effect at all on  
powerpc, and produces
loads of errors and ipython crashes on intel. Maybe I am missing some  
other fix for py27.


One last request to the maintainer - could you consider changing the
Depends: numeric, numarray  to Suggests: ... or something the like?
They have not been required for running matplotlib for some time, and  
I think anyone
who needs to hold on to these packages at this time should know so on  
their own...

Hi,

the cython-py[xx]_0.14 package is broken for Python2.4 and 2.5 because

with my Emacs 23.1.1, it's automatically loaded when opening a script  
e.g.
with a .gp extension. Otherwise 'M-x gnuplot-mode' should do it.

Ah, wait - back in the time when I was using gnuplot, I had actually put
the following into my .emacs (not sure if all of them are still  
necessary):

;; these lines enable the use of gnuplot mode
   (autoload 'gnuplot-mode "gnuplot" "gnuplot major mode" t)
   (autoload 'gnuplot-make-buffer "gnuplot" "open a buffer in gnuplot  
mode" t)

;; this line automatically causes all files with the .gp extension to
;; be loaded into gnuplot mode
(setq auto-mode-alist (append '(("\\.gp\\'" . gnuplot-mode)) auto-mode- 
alist))

This is in fact the characteristic error from trying to load a module  
for a different
Python version - I've just checked you can in fact load fink's numpy- 
py25
(as well as pylab and PIL) in /usr/bin/python2.5 after adapting the  
path, and
vice-versa. It even passes all tests :-)
So it seems there must be a version mismatch - could you provide the  
following
information:

echo $PYTHONPATH (just to make sure)

insert the following lines into your script:

import sys
print sys.version
print sys.path

Also, is your system Python 2.5 or 2.6 (it's 2.5 on Leopard, not sure  
about
Snow Leopard right now)?

Derek

Yes! I think you could switch to Python2.5 using the python-config if 
needed, but it would probably still be preferable to track down why 
your script is not using the python interpreter specified, or not using 
its default module path. It would help to get the output from the 
sys.path and sys.version above.

Since Apple's Python does not include a matplotlib installation, this 
could hardly induce the crash due to a version conflict; thus the 
problem is most likely somewhere inside the exp_setup, so I'd 
have a closer look into that module - I suspect it might be changing 
the sys.path settings...

That's not an error - it was printed at the end of my build as well (would not 
even have noticed on my own), but installation succeeds just fine without 
these. I guess bsddb185 would be some wrapper for Berkeley DB (if you need one, 
you should be able to install bsddb3-py27 once your python build is fixed), the 
next are obviously audio devices for various OSs you'd neither want nor need, 
and no idea what spwd might be...

That's probably the show-stopper, but almost no information on the causes - are 
there no further messages below? I'd then look further up in the output for 
some error messages about failing to compile _tkinter.so or the like. 
I just built that package on the same system version; without further 
diagnostics I could only suggest to check your installation of tcltk and 
tcltk-dev, maybe rebuild those packages ('fink rebuild tcltk').

Re: [Fink-users] Serious problems with gnuplot and other installations

Hi Frank,

as Alexander mentioned, fink is working under 10.6.8 in other places, 
e.g. I just recompiled openldap24 worked here with the same XCode 
version (although in 64bit, I admit). 

If I am correct in assuming the first error already is fatal:

this would seem to be rooted in your /usr/include tree, as normally that macro 
- 
#include 

#if !defined(BYTE_ORDER) || \
(BYTE_ORDER != BIG_ENDIAN && BYTE_ORDER != LITTLE_ENDIAN && \
BYTE_ORDER != PDP_ENDIAN)
/* you must determine what the correct bit order is for
 * your compiler - the next line is an intentional error
 * which will force your compiles to bomb until you fix
 * the above macros.
 */
#error "Undefined or invalid BYTE_ORDER";
#endif

would be defined in i386/endian.h (via machine/endian.h), which sets both 
#define __DARWIN_BYTE_ORDER __DARWIN_LITTLE_ENDIAN
#define LITTLE_ENDIAN   __DARWIN_LITTLE_ENDIAN
#define BYTE_ORDER  __DARWIN_BYTE_ORDER

so this rather looks like your XCode installation is broken or affected by 
3rd-party installs, as already suggested - have you tried reinstalling the 
developer tools? 
I don't know if this also explains the bootstrap errors you got, I suspect 
you may need to run the build more verbosely or send more output...

HTH,
Derek

Easy enough - just remove the ' --enable-gtk-doc' from the configure line 
(and the gtk-doc BuildDepends of course) - just tested it. 
Haven't checked though if the documentation is looking uglier now...

tortoise-py27 builds on 10.6 as well, but does not run:

...
  File "/sw/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tortoisehg/util/hglib.py", line 22, in

Apparently you have to upgrade to 2.2 for compatibility with mercurial (>= 1.9):

Version: 2.2
Revision: 1
Type: python (2.5 2.6 2.7)
Source: http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/targz/downloads/tortoisehg-%v.tar.gz
Source-MD5: 6f25086aa31238db25bc065ef7c25442

Builds and runs (with some slightly annoying debugging output ;-) nicely. 
Looks like a nice tool, thanks for the package!

Cheers,
Derek

yes, that did it! It had been installed along with one of the other packages 
(all part of the texlive dependencies), but apparently not the first time I 
tried 
the build. Just a missing TestDepends in those packages?

[Fink-users] Circular dependencies in Perl 5.10 modules

2012-03-23 Thread Derek Homeier
Hi,

when I am trying to build and install any of the 6 modules below 
in a clean fink tree with testing turned on, it fails due to unresolved 
dependencies, but gives no information on the dependencies.

Since it works after installing one of them without --tests=on, I realize it

[Fink-users] passwd PostInstall issues

2012-03-28 Thread Derek Homeier
Hi,

when trying to install with "update" in a clean fink tree, passwd stumbles in 
the PostInstall phase:

> fink update passwd
> 
Information about 11107 packages read in 2 seconds.
The following package will be installed or updated:

"fink install passwd" works, but since I habitually use "update" in place of 
"install" to make 
sure I get the newest version (or, in this case, the install was triggered as a 
dependency from a
"fink update" of another package), I thought this might be worth pointing out. 

Cheers,
Derek

thanks for the clarification; that's more or less what I assumed as well and 
just 
was using "update" for the benefit of doubt. Now I am rather confused as to 
what 
happened, possibly it was actually fixed by a rebuild of the package. I thought 
I had first tried unsuccessfully again the "fink update" after the rebuild, but 
apparently I did not... I was wondering as well whether package being present 
in several fink installations simultaneously could cause problems (in addition 
to 
/sw I have installations both in /sw32 and /sw64 for testing). Each instance 
seems 
just to happily add and remove entries to NetInfo on its own...

BTW, has finkproject.org been hijacked or something? I was just trying to look 
up at 
what step of the package install PostInst is actually executed, but I am 
immediately 
redirected from any URL under finkproject.org to some advertising sites!

Cheers,
Derek

[Fink-users] gtk-doc build failure on 10.6/x86_64

2012-05-14 Thread Derek Homeier

Since I have gtk-doc on my old x86_64 fink installation (updated over time) I 
suspected a 
missing dependency, but building it in an also fresh 32bit tree on the same 
machine works. 
I recompiled libxml2 just in case, but to no effect.

Ah, that ^ file was missing - it appears I had a broken docbook installation 
that had installed 
into /sw instead of the %p for that tree, /sw64. 
/sw64/bin/fink rebuild docbook-dtd fixed the problem.

Thanks for your help,

[Fink-users] libsigc++2 build failure on Leopard

I've tried reinstalling perl and rebuilding fink, but to no avail - any idea if

Yep, that fixes it, thanks! I suspected something with the "+" being 
interpreted as regex, but my perl 
skills were too rusty to take me any further. I could not reproduce it on 10.7 
either, or 10.6 AFAIR 
(can't check right now), and had libsigc++2-2.2.8 installed on 10.5/ppc, but 
trying to rebuild it there 
(without your patch) just produced the same error; so I seem to have it built 
there with an earlier fink 
version before this became broken. And then it apparently depends on the system 
perl version how 
it handles this (5.8.8 vs. 5.10+).

Thanks again,
Derek

An alternative were to install the base system and copy over the 
/fink/dists tree from your existing installation, then fink should just 
use your local .deb files for setting up the other packages.

That's entirely possible, I think I had this problem sometimes.
I've actually switched over to do a "fink scanpackages" and use apt-get 
for transferring the installation to other machines now, but I thought for 
a
one-time installation copying the /sw/fink might still be the easiest way 
to go. (I guess with "rsync -a" the symlinks in ./debs should be preserved.
)

In that case you could also add a line like

deb file:/Volumes/Cube2Software/sw/fink/dists unstable main crypto

(or whatever branch you have installed) to /sw/etc/apt/sources.list on
cube1, and then install the packages with

I don't think so, wasn't this a known problem of the User's prefs panel 
being dumb? IIRC it just transfers ownership of a deleted user's home dir 
to some other (admin) user, and if that home dir happens to be / or /usr 
as probably the case for some of the special users, you're in trouble. 
Which of course boils down again to "don't use the Users panel to delete 
users!"

Yes, I think UID<100 is exactly the criterion (well, maybe <=100, dunno ;-
).
I have fared very well on my system with just reducing all UIDs and GIDs 
of the passwd-fink users by 200. Which of course raises the question:
what prevents fink from using these IDs per default? I am of course aware 
that IDs in that range are somewhat more queasy than >200, I just haven't 
noticed anything that wants to install users in this range. Is there any 
common software around using the 50-60 IDs, or is there an official Apple 
policy that 3rd-party software shall not install users in the special 
range?

Just curious,
Derek

I have noticed something similar on one machine, and I think the login 
window is just hiding users that have never been logged in. It did not 
show some regular users (UID>500) either, but after a certain user had 
logged in for the first time, he appeared in the list.
You will probably find that the 'passwd' users still show up in the System 
prefs panel, but at least that's less annoying (just don't get tempted to 
remove them there...).

Actually I was pretty sure they were _not_ in my Prefs, but they are there 
now! Either I am just confused or maybe they only keep out of there if 
they have never been installed with a UID>99, or maybe this also changed 
with 10.1.2...

I did not have any problems with that particular library, but I could not 
build wxpython-wxgtk in the first place with the current glib, because 
glib-1.2 installs glib.h in /sw/include/glib-1.2, while the patch to 
wxpython-wxgtk puts /sw/lib/glib/include into the include-dirs. This 
caused the compile to fail at a very early stage. Adding the new path to 
the patch made it work.
Maybe this has nothing to do with your troubles, but I'd suggest checking 
for the output where the actual compilation of the missing .o files in 
your build failed.

[Fink-users] control-center fails to link Xext

2002-03-22 Thread Derek Homeier

Hi all,

for some time now control-center is failing to build in my cvs installation, 
apparently because the gnomecc compile is missing a -L/usr/X11R6/lib:

cc -I/sw/include/gdk-pixbuf-1.0 -I/sw/include/gtk-1.2 -I/sw/include/glib-1.2

This has been preventing me from updating most of the gnome-packages

(In case this might matter, /usr/X11R6 is actually a link to /sw/X11R6, 
which lives on its own partition, like with several other people here, 
but this has never caused any problems yet.)

[Fink-users] sh-mode bug in vim-6.0-4

2002-03-22 Thread Derek Homeier

Hi all,

I see a probably completely harmless, but annoying bug in vim:
when editing shell scripts (sh/zsh/ksh at least), I frequently get the 
following error on startup:

Error detected while processing /sw/share/vim/vim60/syntax/sh.vim:
line  321:
E394: Didn't find region item for shRepeat
Invalid argument: shUntilSync^Igrouphere^IshRepeat^I"\"
line  322:
E394: Didn't find region item for shRepeat
Invalid argument: shWhileSync^Igrouphere^IshRepeat^I"\"
Hit ENTER or type command to continue

It works smoothly after that, with syntax highlighting and colours etc.
The version is vim-nox 6.0-4 (not even in unstable, it seems), though I 
think the same happened with the regular vim.
Anyone knows what it means (or even better, how to fix it)?

Cheers,
Derek

Actually, mounting it under /sw works just fine if you add it to
/etc/fstab and ". /mounts" in netinfo -- provided it is an UFS partition,
because HFS+ partitions can't be checked by fsck, I think autodiskmount 
takes care of that. I have not figured out how to have autodiskmount check 
the filesystems at the right time (in /etc/rc), so I gave up on trying to 
mount HFS partitions anywhere else.
Even UFS partitions often failed to mount with the "mount -vat ufs" in 
/etc/rc since 10.1 or so, so I have added softlinks to everything in 
/Volumes/Fink to /sw (the mount point on /) as a fallback. If everything 
goes right, the fink partition is just mounted over the symlinks.
Coming to think of it, I just checked that there actually is no fsck call 
in /etc/rc, maybe adding that would be a good idea. DOH!
As a final remark, this setup still forced me to link /sw/src to yet 
another partition with a HFS+ filesystem, since the UFS implementation in 
Darwin is still so crappy that it doesn't survive an Xfree86 compile!

Of course, all this is entirely at your own risk (especially changing /etc/
rc and /etc/fstab) and probably not for the uninitiated. You might just 
fare better with the symlink approach, and I can't see any real 
disadvantages to it (except that it looks ugly ;-).

Derek

It certainly seemed like a problem already present in the source 
distribution. Heh, I can't say I really understand the syntax, but this 
seems to fix it: change lines 321,322 in /sw/share/vim/vim60/syntax/sh.vim 
to

+if exists("b:is_kornshell") || exists("b:is_bash")
syn sync match shUntilSync grouphere  shRepeat   "\"
syn sync match shWhileSync grouphere  shRepeat   "\"
+endif

(the error apparently originated from the fact that shRepeat was also only 
defined under that condition. I think it also did not occur with scripts 
having a #!/bin/ksh or #!/sw/bin/bash at the beginning).

Jeff, want to include that patch or should this rather be sent upstream to 
the vim developers? It might not occur on other systems, maybe "b:is_bash"
  is always set on Linux or whatever, but this still seems like a general 
bug.

Derek

Well, good point: what gcc? Fink, per default _does_ use Apple's /usr/bin/
cc, and I'm pretty sure it does not install any gcc (of course it is gcc, 
really, but this seems to hint at something unusual in your setup).

Looks like this is settled, it seemed to be another instance of persistent 
problems with ksh and libtool: whenever there exists a ksh in /bin (I have 
normally copied the fink binary to that place, because we have just many 
shell scripts around that expect it there), libtool keeps creating its 
scripts with /bin/ksh instead of /bin/sh. Obviously the pdksh port just is 
not up to that job yet, because on long builds like for gnome stuff I keep 
seeing it crash with a memory fault. This sometimes also happens with very 
long job scripts, where the shell actually doesn't do much, but has to 
wait for some hours until the main program has finished. But this was the 
first time I saw it just failing on creating a linker flag.

I seem to remember from John's original posting that configure found a 
gcc in the path, and that would definitely indicate that there is another 
executable around which is probably not from the current devtools. 
John, I would suggest doing a `which gcc`, and if that returns anything 
that is not a symlink to /usr/bin/cc, it likely is the cause of the
problems. Try a 'cmp $(which cc) /usr/bin/cc' to see if these are 
actually different executables, or find out where it comes from 
(GNU-Darwin in fact comes to mind), but if in doubt I would just 
remove it or at least move it out of the way. 
All this is assuming that the above error message came from Wayne's 
posting, who might in fact have to check his devtools version.

HTH,
Derek

OK, not exactly settled, rather worked around: I manually remove /bin/ksh 
on the build machine before a major fink update. Since I manually installed 
it there I would not necessarily expect fink to support that setup. 
Still, it would be nice if ksh would not crash, or one could persuade 
libtool to stick with /bin/sh, but the erratic nature of the ksh segfaults 
make it somewhat difficult to diagnose the error (or does any of the 
developers recognize this as a common problem?).
And I don't know enough about libtool to have any remedy on that side.

Thanks for working on this (I assume you did), but the solution of finding 
the include path with glib-config does not work here: 

creating build/temp.darwin-5.3-PowerMacintosh-2.2/src

-I/sw/include/glib-1.2 -I/sw/lib/glib/include

The same command issued from the command line compiles fine, and putting 
the include path explicitly into the SetCFLAGS field also works. 
I guess the problem is that the build script is interpreted by python, 
which does not understand the shell backquotes.

I had a few other minor problems:

Some packages, such as scientificpython and pil install into
/sw/lib/python2.1/site-packages/ , though they don't explicitly require 
python2.1. They are thus invisible to python2.2 unless you create symlinks 
into /sw/lib/python2.2/site-packages.

Then, I found that env would fail to execute "#!/usr/bin/env python" 
scripts with "env: python : No such file or directory".
Of course, /sw/bin is in my path, but how do I make that known to env?

Yep, that worked. Didn't remember I had those packages already around that

Hmm, in fact I forgot I could execute some of the setup.py scripts in the 
scipy build tree just fine. Seems to have been a formatting problem, those 
were files I had downloaded as DOS-text. Converting the line returns and 
replacing some space characters in the first line solved it, apparently

You should also rebuild xfree86-base. The file system corruption does not

Did not read this thread before, but I had the exact same problems with a 
recent selfupdate (and posted it here, too). I think fink just barfs on 
the number of error msgs from the packages removed from the repository, a 
la

My solution for this was not to remove any packages (the errors occurred 
for packages I never installed as well), but remove the old package 
_descriptions_ from the /sw/fink/dists tree. A complete removal (or 
renaming) of the "finkinfo" directories would probably work, but to play 
it safe you might try

find /sw/fink/dists -name '*.info' -exec sudo rm {} \;
find /sw/fink/dists -name '*.patch' -exec sudo rm {} \;

selfupdate-cvs will normally install a full new set of package 
descriptions, so you should be fine after that -- at least it worked for 
me, and I had the  exact same

Not exactly! The selfupdate problems here occurred on a machine that had 
been running unstable from cvs for months, so there certainly wasn't 
anything moved manually into stable. It also did not print out that 
helpful advice to remove the .info and .patch files, just errors of the 
kind

cvs server: dists/stable/main/finkinfo/gnome/gnome-libs-1.4.1.2-4.info is 
no longer in the repository

The same seems to have happened for at least one other user. However, 
removing the files solved the problem nonetheless. It did happen after I 
had not updated for a relatively long time, so I believe the updating 
script (or cvs?) can only digest so many of these errors, or it somehow 
loses track of old versions after some time. I would still consider it a 
bug of some sort.

[Fink-users] qt3-shlibs linking error

2002-05-10 Thread Derek Homeier

Greetings,

I have been unable to build qt3 (or rather qt3-shlibs, I assume), because
of a failure to link to libfreetype: 

mv libqui.1.0.0.dylib libqui.dylib libqui.1.dylib libqui.1.0.dylib ../../../lib/
cd designer && make -f Makefile
/Volumes/Galapagos/src/qt3-3.0.4-3/qt-x11-free-3.0.4/bin/uic dbconnections.ui -o 
dbconnections.h
dyld: /Volumes/Galapagos/src/qt3-3.0.4-3/qt-x11-free-3.0.4/bin/uic version mismatch 
for library: /sw/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version of user: 6.2.0 greater 
than library's version: 0.0.0)
make[4]: *** [dbconnections.h] Error 61
make[3]: *** [sub-designer] Error 2
...

I have seen dyld bitching like this before, but never found a consistent 
solution for it. I have rebuilt freetype2-shlibs, freetype2 from latest 
cvs and uninstalled qt and dependent packages. 
This is a 10.1.4 system with Dec. 2001 Devtools. 

Ideas?
Derek

I had similar problems with updating gnuplot, which would not update

Oh no, not again! My /bin/sh is the original zsh, but I have /bin/ksh
(copied from fink pdksh), and this used to freak out libtool with 
every larger build. The latest update to pdksh actually seems to 
have solved that problem, but I never noticed any problems with 
dyld (well, I had problems, but could never relate anything to ksh 
being installed in /bin). I will try today's update to qt3 (though it
is unlikely that that could change the version of libfreetype, 
coming to think of it), and then I will try once more with temporarily 
removing ksh from /bin. This does not have any immediate effect on the 
output of 'otool -L', though...

Thanks for the tips,
Derek

Right, occurred to me too after I sent the mail, and it also takes much
less time than randomly trying to build qt3 ;-). This worked:

/sw/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib:
/sw/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 9.0.0, current version 
9.0.0)

Good to hear that someone is working on the libtool issues, though. We are
using a couple of scripts etc. here that expect ksh to be in /bin or /usr/bin.

This does exactly the same as "tar xvzf packages-0.4.0.tar.gz", just as

bzip2 -dc foo.tar.bz2 | tar -xf -

does the same as

tar xjf foo.tar.bz2

(with fink's tar, the flag for bzip'ed files is somewhat inconsistent ;).

If gzip complains about a .gz file not being in gzip format, then that 
file is corrupt, probably from a botched download -- most likely it is a 
"file not found" html-message or something, check it with

less packages-0.4.0.tar.gz

What fink _should_ have done actually is tell you about the corrupt file 
and ask if it should delete and try to download it again. Since it has not 
done so, I suggest just to delete the packages file manually and run 
selfupdate again, or try to download packages-0.4.0.tar.gz manually in 
case there are still problems with the download.

HTH,
Derek

The same thing seems to happen when an updated .info file is available, 
but the .deb has not been rebuilt, e.g.:

xfree86-base_4.2.0-11 is in cvs
xfree86-base_4.2.0-10 is the most recent build --
xfree86-base_4.2.0-10_darwin-powerpc.deb gets deleted.

Since I do not always keep up with every single version of packages like 
xfree86 or gimp, and some just won't build in the latest release (e.g. 
currently abiword and openldap), I'd consider it preferable to keep at 
least the latest .deb of any package.
Otherwise good work, though in general I'd feel more comfortable if there 
was some sort of "verbose" option to tell me what files it actually 
removes...

Thanks,

Derek

Something's wrong there, yes, though the sizes correspond exactly to the 
regular sh (==zsh, try a ls -l /bin/zsh!). Still, it is possible that zsh 
behaves differently when called as "ksh", although I don't understand why 
it does not pass the string of arguments properly.
I'd agree that it is probably the best solution to remove that ksh, since 
it seems to be a simple copy (you may verify this with cmp beforehand).
Also, if for any reason you need a ksh you can always try fink's pdksh or 
ksh93 for the real thing, and if you should absolutely need it in /bin you 
can cp it from /sw/bin (though, as Masanori said, this can break some 
builds with fink, so you might need to rm it again when compiling, but I 
did not have any problems of that kind with pdksh recently...).

HTH,
Derek

Eterm also permits drag scroll and allows you to put the scroll bar on the

Or rather, it should. The package is missing a dependency on groff. 
without which it dies as well. /usr/bin/man works fine for me, however

I can confirm this, it's the same for vim-nox. FWIW, it seems to be a 
error related to ./configure or gcc 3.1 (is there a new autoconf in the
July DevTools?). I got loads of warnings about 
"user-specified include dir -I/usr/local/include moved in priority since 
it is already in system include path" or something to that end, with 
every gcc call. 
What happens is apparently that only /usr/local/include is in the compiler's
own include path, not /usr/include, and consequently some essential .h 
files are missing in the course of the compile. It looks like 
configure sets it up this way whenever there is a /usr/local/include 
present, which seems rather braindead, of course. On second thought, 
maybe this is a remnant from a developer-gcc3 setup to allow gcc3 to be 
installed independently from gcc 2.95...

Any thoughts?
Derek

I think the update is not always smart enough about rebuilding all  
necessary dependencies. "fink rebuild gtk+ gtk+-shlibs" might help  
here, though I am not sure about this particular one (but I had a  
similar problem with gtk+/gdk libs not linking).

It seems the problem here is some files have wandered from gnome-libs  
in the previous package version to gnome-libs-shlib in the current one,  
a problem sometimes occurring due to the split-off of the -shlibs  
packages.
One thing you could try is
"sudo dpkg -r --force-depends gnome-libs-dev gnome-libs  
gnome-libs-shlibs"
to purge the old packages, and then do a
"fink update gnome-libs-dev".

HTH,
Derek

Thanks for that bit of background info, but that does not seem to be 
the whole story. On larger updates, I have frequently seen that error 
without any conceivable dependency problem. Typical scenario:

fink update-all
... building libsigc++ fails for reasons I have not investigated yet 
(this is on experimental). To got the update going, I manually select 
all other missing packages and do a 'fink update ...' on them.
 > Failed: Internal error: node for libsigc++ already exists
It finally can be brought to work again when cutting the number of 
packages down to a sufficiently small number, but the error seems to 
occur whenever a very large number of packages is to be updated. I 
think Max actually mentioned this as a bug.
So the update needs to be split up into many small chunks whenever a 
lot of packages need updating, making the process rather tedious of 
course. It would be really helpful if packages that don't build 
successfully could be put on "hold", so that "update-all" would just 
ignore them.

Cheers,
Derek

You could also make it mount directly under /sw by adding a line like

and running 'niload fstab . < /etc/fstab'. Autodiskmount then will take

That probably wouldn't help much as he said he is not using any Norton 
tools in the first place :-). Moreover, Steve's problem is a simple 
linker error, no crashing patch or kernel panics, if I read him 
correctly.
Steve, the symbols ld is missing in your installation belong to 
libslang, not to ncurses, so I'd suggest to check if slang is installed, 
and possibly rebuilt under 10.2. It seems it did not include -lslang in 
the linker commands at all, though it obviously included the slang 
headers, so something must have gone wrong there. If in doubt just try 
to rebuild slang, the 10.2 updater might not always detect which 
packages need to be recompiled.

HTH,
Derek

Right, I just wasn't aware of other tools that might destabilize your 
system in a similar way,  for a virus scanner it's somewhat 
conceivable, though I would not want anything like this on my system... 
My main point anyway was that this was not a case of a system-crashing 
compile failure.

Well, this case was apparently a problem of linking to an internal 
library of the package, not of another package, but it happened to me 
in a few instances. I assume these problems partly occurred because I 
had the experimental 10.2 tree installed before the official upgrade 
recipe was around, but it's possible this could happen to someone else 
too, as the upgrade script might not be tested for every possible 
configuration.
As I understand it, fink update will not automatically recognize if a 
package needs to be recompiled for Jaguar -- selfupdate will install 
the package descriptions into the 10.2 tree, but if the version number 
did not increase, an update-all or 'update package' will not rebuild 
the package if it is already installed. This is why the update-fink.sh 
script needs to be executed before other packages are updated to 10.2. 
So, whenever I found a package that would not build under Jaguar, I 
looked up the Dependencies and checked if they had already been rebuilt 
since the system upgrade, and if not, an explicit 'rebuild package' 
would often fix the problem.
Again, if you have upgraded fink through the regular path, you probably 
should not see such problems.

Derek

For catching the output in the terminal as well, that would be

   /sw/fink> fink selfupdate-cvs 2>&1 | tee ~/fink.log

or alternatively, just redirect the output as above:

   /sw/fink> fink selfupdate-cvs >fink.log 2>&1 &

and watch the logfile with:

   tail -f ~/fink.log

Just to embark on the layer concept, for the most part it should be 
sufficient to make things group-writable by wheel, since you are 
naturally admin user (not that there's a guarantee against someone

Furthermore, that would basically just require the permissions of 
/sw/src to be changed. There probably is not much to be said against 
that (unless someone should actually install a  spoofed tarball, but 
that's probably a bit far-fetched, and many packages also test the 
checksum before compiling).
As for anything else, there's also the point of protection against 
yourself. You don't really want to delete anything inside /sw/bin, 
/sw/lib etc. from the finder, so it's best not to enable it in the first 
place!

I'd not only recommend that but strictly warn against doing otherwise, 
as it would probably corrupt your fink installation even worse than 
manually removing files!
A number of programs depend on being installed under a certain UID, and 
at best, will not work if owned by anyone else -- at worst, they might 
become unpredictable security risks. After all, having sensitive 
programs, sshd for example, not easily modified by regular users, even 
if it is your own account, was the basic idea of privilege separation in 
the first place.
Actually, some programs will refuse to run not only if owned by someone 
else than they are supposed to, but even if they live in a world- or 
group-writable directory -- just remembering the notorious sendmail 
problem on MacOS X.

That's a nice feature of Terminal :-) Though personally, I'll probably 
stick to using wildcards from the shell.

Just for clarification, the actual problem is, as noted in a previous 
post, that pdflatex cannot use the graphics in eps format. tetex-macosx 
includes the "epstopdf" script, which is then probably automatically 
found and used by doxygen, so this fix will probably work both for fink 
and non-fink builds.
Actually, I noticed tetex-macosx also provides an alternative pdflatex 
which can directly include eps graphics, so maybe that's what is used. 
Might be the reason why epstopdf is not included with pdflatex, too.

The altpdflatex is in fact just a wrapper script to call ps2pdf which 
has two disadvantages compared two pdftex:
1. Any hypertext structure of the tex/dvi files is lost during the 
postscript conversion, thus there won't be any links to chapters, 
figures, citations etc. in the output.
2. The script contains a hardcoded path to gs and ps2pdf in 
/usr/local/bin and thus does not work with the fink ghostscript 
distribution. This should be fixed in the fink package.

Derek

Using LAM-MPI here, although on a cluster of mere Quicksilvers. The port

Yep, remember that one, I've got around it by installing the executables

Everything else seems to work flawlessly, indeed; the full MPI testsuite 
completes without errors, and I've even run the extra LAM tests from the 
6.6-beta with partial success.
One thing to consider when running jobs across multiple machines is 
MacOS X's awkward NFS naming scheme.
Thanks for the great work!

I found the most convenient way of sharing a fink installation or 
backing it up on CD, and still getting a clean install of the software, 
is to do a 'fink scanpackages' and just copy the whole content of 
/sw/fink/dists (you can omit the "finkinfo" directories, but that's 
insignificant in terms of storage space) over to the CD (or export it 
over NFS, AFP or whatever). You then just need to point your 
/sw/etc/apt/sources.list to that archive and can do a binary 
installation of all the packages. The .deb files are also fairly 
compact (effectively, the contents are compressed about as well as with 
tar.gz), so you can get a fairly complete distribution on one CD (I 
don"t have a lot of KDE stuff installed here, if you add that you'd 
probably need a second disk).
To get a list of the packages that are actually installed on the 
original system,
"dpkg --get-selections" is quite useful, too.

HTH,
Derek

[Fink-users] CVS problem

2002-10-15 Thread Derek Homeier

I seem to have a problem with my cvs setup/permissions in /sw/fink 
since upgrading to the 10.2 tree. I did not run the upgrade script on 
that system since I had already been using the experimental 10.2 tree 
before. So maybe someone can give me a hint what exactly should be the 
ownerships and permissions in the /sw/fink hierarchy.
The fink installation itself works flawlessly, otherwise, the only 
problem I have is that every 'selfupdate-cvs' will fail with the dreaded

error for every single .info and .patch file in the 10.2 tree (none in 
the 10.1 tree!). Only way to get the update I found is to remove all 
infos, patches and .cvsignores in 10.2 before the selfupdate. So I have 
tried to figure out if cvs is unhappy with the permissions in any way, 
it turned out that initially most of the subdirectories were owned by 
root:wheel, which cvs could not update at all (that seems reasonable, 
since it is operating as user "derek" at that time). So I made sure all 
ownerships were changed to "derek" with the exception of the
binary-* directories and the .deb files themselves. Result see above -- 
permissions are exactly the same as in the 10.1 dir, none of the 
info/patch files has even been touched since the last selfupdate, yet 
cvs invariably runs amok.
Any idea what's screwed up here, or any other settings for the 
selfupdate I might have to look into?

TIA,
Derek

Thanks, Ben, that fixed it! It also skips searching the 10.1 tree 
altogether now.

Re: [Fink-users] Capturing Distro to CD

I couldn't even figure out how to get a decent tar archive, let alone
a multidisk tar archive. (My first foolish attempt to make a .tgz or

Copying the /sw/fink/dists archive and using dpkg --get-selections is 
a much cleaner solution than tarballing the whole directory structure 
is the cleanest solution, but if you really want the whole Fink tree 
backed up, here are some useful tar tips:

If you pass tar the -z flag, as opposed to gzipping the resulting tar 
file separately, you wind up with a .tgz, which is different than a 
tar.gz. The first format contains each file individually gzipped, 
while the latter contains everything archived into a single .tar file, 
which is then gzipped as a whole, which will almost always result in 
greater compression.

Pardon me, but that's nonsense! The 'z' flag just pipes the (archived) 
output internally through gzip, which results in exactly the same 
compressed file as doing it manually. Wether it is called .tgz or 
.tar.gz depends solely on what filename you specify after the 'f'. You 
can simply ungzip the .tgz to get a regular .tar file, but you cannot 
untar it to get the individually gzipped contents.
I have largely switched to using the .tar.gz naming convention, mostly 
for clarity, but also because some MacOS apps can't make sense of the 
.tgz suffix -- IIRC, StuffitExpander does something utterly stupid like 
first uncompressing it into a ".tgz.tar" archive and then untarring 
that...
Just some data:

miranda:6039> tar cpzf /tmp/manpages.tgz sw/share/man
miranda:6040> tar cpf - sw/share/man | gzip -c > /tmp/manpages.tar.gz
miranda:6041> ll /tmp/manpages*
-rw-r-1 derekwheel 3456211 Oct 19 15:49 
/tmp/manpages.tar.gz
-rw-r-1 derekwheel 3456211 Oct 19 15:41 
/tmp/manpages.tgz

Any reduction in files size you can get from doing the gzip manually is 
by giving it
the '-9' flag to enforce higher compression, but the effect is rather 
small:

miranda:6042> tar cpf - sw/share/man | gzip -9c > /tmp/manpages9.tar.gz

-rw-r-1 derekwheel 3432947 Oct 19 15:51 
/tmp/manpages9.tar.gz

If you want really better compression, you can use the 'j' option with 
fink's tar to create a bzip2 archive, which typically gives about 30% 
reduction vs. gzip (and also is significantly slower than even gzip -9):

miranda:6047> /sw/bin/tar cpjf /tmp/manpages.tar.bz2 sw/share/man

-rw-r-1 derekwheel 2680388 Oct 19 15:54 
/tmp/manpages.tar.bz2

It also is somewhat less compatible, but bzip2 now even comes 
preinstalled with 10.2, so there shouldn't be a great problem with 
getting it unarchived.

HTH,

Re: [Fink-users] wxpython-wxgtk 2.3.3.x: when will I be able to get it with Fink?

I'm currently running wxpython-wxgtk 2.3.2.1-5 on Mac OS 10.1.5 and I  
need to upgrade to 2.3.3.x (because one of my apps' new version uses  
it), which is mentioned extensively on www.wxpython.org, but which I  
can't seem to get using Fink.  That would be okay, and I'd just try it  
out directly from them (especially since they have a Mac OS X version  
now -- 2.3.3.1) but I don't know where to move the files their  
installer gives me in order for them to work (i.e. where do I move  
them in relation to my Fink /sw folder?).  Their installer, of course,  
installs into my /users/mylastname directory, but my apps still seem  
to run off what's in the /sw folder.

any advice?

I am not sure if that binary they provide corresponds to the  
wxpython-wxgtk fink provided, and I am also not sure if it is 100%  
Jaguar-clean (it seems to be basically a 10.1 version, and their own  
/usr/local/bin/python you need to install with the MachoPython package  
seems to have some problems loading dylibs. It should also be  
unnecessary, since 10.2 provides python in
/usr/bin).
However, it basically appears to work with the occasional error message  
about unsupported locales etc., and maybe it will crash at some point...
Actually, it should not install into your home directory but into  
/Library and /usr/local. So to use it with your fink python there are  
basically two options: set

PYTHONHOME=/sw:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.2

or add

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.2/lib/python2.2/site- 
packages

to your PYTHONPATH variable. The former has the disadvantage that  
PYTHONHOME appears to accept only two elements, since I have it  
normally set to "/usr:/sw" to use both the system-installed and the  
fink modules, I cannot add another one.
I don't know if it includes Gtk support, though. I have tried to use  
this wxPython installation to load the plt module from scipy, which  
works, but trying to plot only produces an empty window and an  
endlessly spinning rainbow wheel. I was in fact not able to kill that  
window by any other way than exiting python.
So, your mileage in getting this to work with your applications may  
vary, but the above should at least allow you to load it.

HTH,
Derek
