[Fink-devel] /sw/lib/libiberty.a
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I was trying to make a cross-compiling tool-chain (powerpc-apple-darwin7.2.0 = powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu) and I discovered that binutils, gcc, and ddd (Max Horn's package) all attempt to install /sw/lib/libiberty.a. What is the best way to handle this? Could/should we use update-alternatives? (I don't know much about it, so I'm not sure) OTOH, if several packages use it, we might see if we could make a seperate libiberty package that just installs a /sw/lib/libiberty.a, then have anything that needs libiberty.a either use their own but not install it or use the installed copy. What do you all think?

[Fink-devel] fink-mirrors breaks selfupdate
Fink selfupdate installs the new fink-0.17.2-1 and then crashees when trying to install the new fink-mirrors package: Re-executing fink to use the new version... Information about 2203 packages read in 3 seconds. The following package will be installed or updated: fink-mirrors Failed: No mirror site list file found for mirror 'sourceforge'. This is not surprising, because the new fink doesn't contain the mirror list any more. I think the fink-mirrors package should have a hard-coded source URL, not a mirror:sourceforge one. I am now trying to find a way out of this by 1. reinstalling the old version of fink-0.17.1-1 2. fink fetch fink-mirrors 3. fink install fink-mirrors (which will ask for reupdating fink, too) OK, this worked. I think if this is not fixed, we will soon need a new FAQ entry about this problem :-) Merry Christmas everyone -- Martin --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.

My belief is that the Provides line is not enough to satisfy dpkg. Certainly that was true in the early days of fink. It's possible that it has changed, and that I haven't kept up with dpkg's capabilities. -- Dave --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.

It's possible that it has changed, and that I haven't kept up with dpkg's capabilities. I'm not talking about adding Provides lines to the virtual perl packages, i'm talking about adding whole new virtual packages for every perl module a fink user has in the system perl. To fink, dpkg, and apt, VirtPackages.pm creates real packages, not Provides. It all works because of our hack to dpkg and apt. If a user tries to install something that wants cctools (= 446-1), it works fine - the install fails until they install the new dev tools. The proposed perl modules solution should work too. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detailaid=865568group_id=17203atid=367203 -Ben --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.

Ah, nevermind, looks like the fink VERSION file simply wasn't updated to .3 in CVS. -Ben On Dec 24, 2003, at 10:38 PM, Ben Hines wrote: Looks like its not clearing out the index again. % ./inject.pl sudo ./inject.pl /sw Password: Creating fink tarball... tar -cf /sw/src/fink-0.17.2.cvs.tar COPYING INSTALL INSTALL.html README README.html USAGE USAGE.html Makefile ChangeLog VERSION fink.in fink.8.in fink.conf.5.in install.sh setup.sh shlibs.default.in pathsetup.command.in postinstall.pl.in perlmod update t fink-virtual-pkgs.in Copying package description(s)... /usr/bin/sed -e 's/@VERSION@/0.17.2.cvs/' -e 's/@REVISION@/20031225.0637/' -e 's/@MD5@/05496db2a60b646b0f92cafb86d3b8e1/' fink.info.in /sw/fink/dists/local/bootstrap/finkinfo/fink-0.17.2.cvs.info /bin/chmod 644 /sw/fink/dists/local/bootstrap/finkinfo/*.* Installing package... /sw/bin/fink install fink Reading package info...
