The latest xquartz X11 update comes with libcairo and cairo pkgconfig files and even cairo-svg.h, but not rsvg-cairo.h. Thus, even with Fink's cairo package removed, the imagemagick configure script find's X11's cairo, thinks cairo-svg is installed and crashes. On Jerry's compiler line, as on mine here with xquartz-2.2.0 installed, I see the evidence: -I/usr/X11/include/cairo We really need to get the pangocairo-branch out of the door ASAP, and we need to take care of the duplicate libraries in the new xquartz update. Besides freetype2 and fontconfig which we know how to deal with, there is now cairo, and also libpng that will cause trouble. On Jerry's compiler line I also see -I/usr/X11/include/libpng12 which is not there if one compiles on a machine with 10.5.2 X11, but without the latest xquartz update. There are other problems with xquartz as well. While testing things for the xmkmf update on an xquartz-only system, I ran into several fink packages which wouldn't compile, including gtk+, openmotif3, and t1lib5-x11. I haven't investigated these closely -- perhaps they will be easily fixed -- but the lesson I think we are learning here is that supporting xquartz is going to be a major issue for fink.

[Fink-devel] xquartz woes
Dave, I'll update the packaging I have for openmotif3-2.2.4-1 and openmotif4-2.3.0-1 on fink tracking to use the new xmkmf package's xmkmf. I've emailed Ben Hines to find out if he is still actively maintaining openmotif3. If not, I would be happy to take that over as well as lesstif and the new openmotif4 package. Jack ps You may have noticed the previous threads on lesstif which indicate that supporting the newer versions of lesstif will require that package to lose the existing Motif 1.2 shared libraries. While this violates fink policy, it is impossible that this change will break any packages since lesstif hasn't been installing the Motif-1.2 headers (required to build against the Motif-1.2 shared libraries). Also, Motif-2.1 has been the default for lesstif since around 2001. Lesstif stopped building Motif-1.2 in late 2004. - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event. There's still time to save $100.

I'm not sure that we'll be able to do it. I think we don't have much of a choice, unless we want to go back to the hellish old days when we had X11 packages in Fink. The packages you mention are probably (I checked only t1lib5-x11, where this is the case) victims of autotools bugs in the psrt of the configure code that is supposed to provide fallback mechanisms for finding X11 headers and libs when xmkmf is absent. This code has never been tested before, because mkmf was always present until now. One manifestation of the bug is in lines like for ac_extension in a so sl; do which can be patched by adding dylib to the list. Another one, which I have seen in several gnome configure scripts (for example libwnck1, startup-notification, gnome-panel), is a line case x_libs in which is a simple syntax error; it should be $x_libs. All of these bugs can be worked around simply by supplying configure with the flags --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib In the case of imagemagick, there seems to be a logical error in configure: It assumes that if it finds rsvg and cairo, then there must also be rsvg-cairo somewhere.
