Re: [Fink-devel] cwp-su, coreutils, and modglue
I think that sounds like a spectacular solution. cwp-su has been driving me crazy for a long time now. That could really be a good solution. Would that be okay in terms of fink policy? I also have a contributed intel package from a use and it would be great to get it all settled before putting that in. -kurt --- Martin Costabel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Martin Costabel wrote: > [] > > Wouldn't it be simpler to leave the safely in > /sw/lib/cwp-su/bin where > > they are now, but instead of making symlinks in > /sw/bin, place a script > > in /sw/etc/profile.d that prepends /sw/lib/cwp-su > to PATH? > > Oops.

Let's see: cwp-su dumps about 350 new executables into /sw/bin, as symlinks, but they are there anyway. Some of those that it would like to install are already being removed because of conflicts, but more conflicts are rather likely in the future. Wouldn't it be simpler to leave the safely in /sw/lib/cwp-su/bin where they are now, but instead of making symlinks in /sw/bin, place a script in /sw/etc/profile.d that prepends /sw/lib/cwp-su to PATH? I would find a similar solution for coreutils[-defaults] much cleaner, too, than the current pollution of /sw/bin with dozens of unix command names in disguise. -- Martin - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Fink-devel] cwp-su, coreutils, and modglue
FYI to the various maintainers: While installing cwp-su (from the 10.4-unstable tree) dpkg complains about: trying to overwrite '/sw/bin/grm', which is also in package coreutils and trying to overwrite '/sw/bin/isatty', which is also in package modglue You may already be aware of this, but there it is. Using sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /pathto/cwp-su_38-1_darwin-powerpc.deb works in the meantime. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Fink-devel] packaging request
The current modglue-1.6 and cadabra-0.100 should resolve any remaining issues on the mac. The dependence on libexpect is gone (so you don't need tcl anymore) and it should compile fine both on 10.3.x and 10.4.x (i.e. it takes care of the nested functions problem reported by many). So if anyone is still reading this thread, these two versions should be the proper starting point.
