The Quicktime 6.0.2 update uses some perl that breaks under 5.8 (they may have fixed the installer by now, but the first version broke) So, as suggested, things might break. I tried rebuilding storage-pm and it failed cause it couldn't find /usr/bin/perl. Can't exec perl: No such file or directory at /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/Services.pm line 216. A quick symbolic link fixed the problem... this time. I guess I could remove the /usr/local/bin installation and go for the /usr/bin version. Anybody know an easy way to remove the /usr/local/bin/perl install? What have others done, write over the Apple version or make links and copies of 5.8 in the standard locations? Or do you just rearrange your $PATH so /usr/local/bin comes first and leave the 5.6 install alone?

[Fink-users] fixing XFree problem
Hi all, A big thank you to Alexander Hansen, who (on- and offlist) helped me narrow down the cause of difficulties in upgrading XFree86 on my almost complete Fink upgrade for Jaguar. I know others have had trouble here and been answered on the list. I hope folks don't mind helping with this again; I'm really trying to learn enough to be able to troubleshoot and maintain my computer in the OS X / *nix world. Key points, as I understand them: 1) I followed the upgrade instructions for Jaguar, and by the end of the day the the two XFree -shlibs packages were installed, but not the main packages for -base and -rootless. Hmm. (They were apparently compiled though, and the most recent -base, -base-shlibs, -rootless, -rootless-shlibs, and system-xfree86 all exist as .deb files in /sw/fink/10.2/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/x11-system/ ) 2) I must have originally installed XFree from a package downloaded from another source (XonX?). Still kicking myself over this one. 3) Now, Fink Commander (FC) will not install xfree86-base because of a conflict with an existing X11. (Truncated FC Output:) system-xfree86 conflicts with x11 xfree86-base provides x11 and is to be installed. dpkg: error processing /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/x11-system/xfree86- base_4.2.1.1-1_darwin-powerpc.deb (--install): conflicting packages - not installing xfree86-base 4) ...and of course FC will not install -rootless because it depends on getting -base installed first. Steps I need to take next: 5) So, I need to move (or delete, or uninstall?) some stuff out of the way, and maybe force-remove system-xfree86 before Fink will let me reinstall the correct packages, is that right? 6) Now, this 'moving-out-of-the-way' -- does that mean renaming to something that is not recognized, or do I need to really move certain directories out of the search path? Maybe I can uninstall the original XFree with the same installer (XInstall) that I used to install it originally? 7) Can I just go wild and delete directories like /usr/X11R6, and /Applications/XDarwin, and /etc/X11? Or would that cause chaos? Thanks for reading this far... --Michael --- This sf.net email is sponsored by: See the NEW Palm Tungsten T handheld.

Re: [Fink-users] fixing XFree problem
5) So, I need to move (or delete, or uninstall?) some stuff out of the way, and maybe force-remove system-xfree86 before Fink will let me reinstall the correct packages, is that right? Yes--the force-remove is only if you have other packages that depend on X11. Okay, I had to force-remove system-xfree because other things like autocutsel depended on X11. The system-xfree package, then, *is* the non-fink one that I don't reinstall later, right? I simply don't need it? I didn't understand that before. I thought Fink simply would not know about the other install and I would have to do everything manually. Fink Commander is really smart in this regard and I appreciate it even more now. Thanks developers! Just rename them to something that is unrecognized: in the case of /usr/X11R6 this simultaneously removes the files from the search path. You could try the installer, but I don't think it's necessary. At the advice of Fink Commander, I simply removed (sudo rm -r) /usr/X11R6 and also /etc/X11. Then FC politely installed the -base and -rootless packages as advertised. :0) So my XFree86 install looks complete and up to date, and I do not need system-xfree86. But now, XDarwin crashes immediately upon launch, with the following spewing to xinit.crash.log: Date/Time: 2002-11-05 16:53:24 -0500 OS Version: 10.2.1 (Build 6D52) Host: dhcp-24.sbb.uvm.edu Command:xinit PID:8703 Exception: EXC_BREAKPOINT (0x0006) Code[0]:0x0001Code[1]:0x8fe01280 Thread 0 Crashed: #0 0x8fe01280 in halt #1 0x8fe0329c in load_library_image #2 0x8fe06134 in load_images_libraries #3 0x8fe026e8 in load_executable_image #4 0x8fe01410 in _dyld_init Not quite out of the woods yet.

There were problems with X forwarding in the earlier 10.0 versions of MacOSX. Since a long time now I haven't had any problem with X forwarding and either fink's or Apple's ssh and sshd. Ha, you're right. I _did_ hear that it was supposed to work as of 10.0.4 or 5 or 10.1 at least (that's what I was referring to), and it did improve in so far as it would actually set DISPLAY to localhost:10.0 or something, but trying to launch any X program would always just produce this kind of error message: xload debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 3 win 4096 max 2048 debug1: client_request_x11: request from 128.192.19.18 49522 debug1: fd 7 setting O_NONBLOCK debug1: channel 1: new [x11] debug1: confirm x11 debug1: X11 connection uses different authentication protocol. debug1: X11 rejected 1 i1/o16 debug1: channel 1: read failed debug1: channel 1: input open - drain debug1: channel 1: close_read debug1: channel 1: write failed debug1: channel 1: output open - closed debug1: channel 1: close_write debug1: X11 closed 1 i2/o128 ^Cdebug1: channel 1: rcvd eof debug1: channel 1: FORCE input drain ^\Quit With both Apple's and Fink's sshd. When I finally got this sorted out, it would work with /sw/sbin/sshd on most machines, but not with /usr/sbin/sshd. After that I found out about the problem with the old .Xauthority files, removal of which fixed it on the remaining systems that did not work before, but I guess I never tried the Apple sshd after that. Turned out this one works now just as well... Morale: purge your old authentication certificates first, if you see errors like this!
