Following up on that:  we *don't* add packages to the distribution that
are known to be completely nonfunctional at runtime, regardless of
whether they build or not.   Having things change that render existing
packages nonfunctional is a different matter.

Why hasn't it helped? You are definitely using C++ because of  
std::string, and at some point in your code (or a library it uses) an  
std::string is being thrown as a C++ exception. You _must_ catch that  
exception with either

catch (std::string s)

or

catch (...)

You may submit the package description (and patch, if there is one) to  
Fink's SourceForge.net 'Package Submission' tracker, and state clearly  
in the submission form that you haven't been able to run the program  
and you'd like some help. After that, send the tracker's item URL to  
this list and maybe someone might help you.

[Fink-devel] twinkle

2009-05-30 Thread Nikhil Kulkarni
Hi All,
We are building fink package of Twinkle VOIP/Chat application. We have
successfully built the package, i.e. the binary package .deb is built and we
are able to install the package. But when we run the apllication we are
getting the below error.

macoss-mac-mini:~ macos$ twinkle
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::string'
Abort trap

We had got a reply some time back to catch the thrown error but the source
is written in C and C++. Hence that didnt help.

Also since the binary package is already built, shall I release the package
on fink so that someone can try using the application and get us the
feedback.

Could you please help as we are in the final stage of building the package.

I misspoke, but you probably shouldn't be throwing strings, and whatever
you throw you should catch.

You can't throw a string, find out where it is throwing and change the
code to throw an exception instead.

[Fink-devel] Twinkle

2009-05-06 Thread Nikhil Kulkarni
Hi All,
We are building fink package of Twinkle VOIP/Chat application. We have
successfully built the package, i.e. the binary package .deb is built. But
after that we are not able to install the package. We are getting the
following error message when we try to run the application.

macoss-mac-mini:~ macos$ twinkle
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::string'
Abort trap

When we try to run the executable file from sw/bin we are getting the
following.

macoss-mac-mini:~ macos$ /sw/bin/twinkle ; exit;
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::string'
Abort trap
logout

Could you please help as we are in the final stage of building the package.
Once its done we will be able to release the package on fink.
