[Fink-beginners] Lyx-qt: still can't resolve dependency
Many thanks to Alexander Hansen. I have followed the instructions and only transferred latex-xft-fonts.info to the stable directory. I now have another dependency problem: Failed: Can't resolve dependency gcc2 for package qt2-g++2-2.3.2-14 (no matching packages/versions found) How do I get around this one? jp I am unable to install Lyx-qt due to the following error: Can't resolve dependency latex-xft-fonts for package lyx-qt-1.3.3-14 (no matching packages/versions found) Any hint on what I should do (full transcript below)? AKH latex-xft-fonts hasn't been moved over to the stable tree yet. You'll want to check out the section on using packages from the unstable tree: http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-fink.php#unstable I've cc'ed the maintainer, since I think latex-xft-fonts should be moved to stable -- I can vouch that the package seems to work (and they're just fonts, after all). -- Jean-Pierre Gattuso | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.obs-vlfr.fr/~gattuso --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.

[Fink-beginners] Re: selfupdate-cvs error
Thanks Alexander-- I now have developer tools installed along with a gcc update. With respect to 'apt-get knows nothing about the unstable tree', I uncommented the line 'deb file:/sw/fink unstable' line in /sw/etc/apt, which seems like a reasonable thing to do. However, apt-get update then gives me a message as shown below, and requests that I run apt-get update. Fink selfupdate and fink index have already been successful run at this point. I am sure there is something simple I need to do, but I am unable to find it in the documentation. Any suggestions?

[Fink-beginners] Stopping Fink from installing too much
Hi, I use fink occasionally to (obviously) install the odd package. It can be very useful, but I tend to find that it wants to install far too much, and I haven't found how to stop it satisfying all its - what I think are unnecessary - dependencies. For example, I just tried to install svn-ssl, and fink asked me to choose which python package to install. Well a) python comes as part of 10.3, why does fink feel it needs to install me a new one? b) as far as I know svn *doesn't need* python. It does come with python bindings - but I don't want to use them. I ran into the same problem with mysql a few days ago. I've installed it many times myself (since OS X was called Rhapsody) and I thought it was time to give fink a try. Fink wanted to install so many extra packages that I gave up and installed from mysql.org - without adding *any* of the extra packages fink told me were necessary. How do I tell fink not to install all the optional extra bits, and just give me what I need? Sorry to ask such a dumb question - I have RTFMed, but I obviously haven't found the right one yet - could some one please point me in the right direction? cheers, Geoff --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.

Okay. It seems to work. But it's confusing and I don't get the right

You may have to adjust the /dev path for communication with Garmin.
I'd really like to do that, but I don't know what adjusting the /dev

Another issue is that I can't use the and buttons to switch

Can that be set back anyhow?

In general we also need to know which fink version of gpsdrive ('fink
list gpsdrive') since a given version of a given program may go
through many generations of fink packages. Fortunately, there's only
one 2.08pre12 for OS X 10.3 at the moment:)

[Fink-beginners] GnuCash question
I have, in theory, installed GnuCash 1.8 using fink into Mac OS X 10.3. Owing to the fact that I cannot find the path to where the gnucash executable lives, I suspect that the installation has not been successful. There are several questions asked of me at the onset of the installation. Of which there are several disparate packages that may be selected. I can find no documentation that gives explicit detail as to which packages to select from the alternatives presented. As there would be 1000's of permutations of the various packages given the number of packages to select from, trial and error is not an option. Therefore, can you point me to a FAQ which details this selection process? Also, assuming I have properly installed the GnuCash package (1.8), where is it?? Find file wont locate it. It is not in /sw/bin. There is no /opt directory... I am drawing a lot of blanks over here and have been trying to install this for a day and a half. It is now a battle of will.

I have tried removing ethereal (apt-get remove ethereal) and re installing (apt-get install ethereal), but I still get this error. I know that this is not ethereal support, but it appears to me that a dependency may not have been satisfied during my install. Is there a way to force a fresh install of the desired package AND dependent packages? Well, if the dependency is not listed in the binary package of ethereal, you will not get it even if you reinstall the binary package. I guess that this binary was built on 10.2 where you had to have the dlcompat-shlibs installed.
