this is no feature request, only an idea.
could it not be nice, to have some interactive feedback when trying to
run commands (that is, programs) provided through fink, but currently
not installed? which could be provided by shell (or perl) placeholders
instead of the real binaries.

This is very interesting to me. It certainly points out how the GPL
licensing in the OpenSource community offers that community a great
advantage. Did they ask for the tools back? From my reading of your

No.

I think we might want to define a plan as to when we will consider
Fink to be 1.0. Some ideas of my own:
* package caching. It's just not acceptable that one has to wait
10-60 seconds before the actual command is processed.
* full shlibs support (that includes automatic dependency detection).

OK-- that almost works. Two problems (maybe):
(1) Fink seems to select between the mirrors at random [makes sense], but
I really want it to go in order so that it will generally succeed except
in those [hopefully rare] situations where the fink package description
has fallen behind the rsync

I'm working on finishing up my cocoon packages, and I'm running into an

There is a recent fink package which installs scripts GET, POST, and
HEAD in /sw/bin. I am not sure which one it is, but it certainly
is not a good idea, since now on HFS+ systems the "head"
command points to /sw/bin/HEAD. This breaks, for instance,
the python update.

You'll need to force remove it and then install the new one...the next
upgrade should hopefully work seamless. Sorry about this.

For the stable bindist, I plan to write a special batch mode strict
dependency checker, and I'd love to hear your comments on this idea,
and possibly suggestions on how to improve upon it.
How it works: it first removes all non-essential packages from the
system; then it "fink install"s the p

Ok, I found that it is linking with -lcurses, and using the system
version: /usr/lib/libcurses.dylib, which does not define _getopt_long.
Does anything I can link to contain getopt_long? Or do i need to depend

It is technically possible to put an "echo yes |" before the configure

you'll prolly need to keep ncurses, but you'll have to add getopt_long,
either by adding it the way i mentioned before or by patching the getopt

Is there a 'proper' way to make a diff for fink? I mean the options
used: -cr, -ur, whatever. I was wondering if it mattered or it was as
long as patch can understand it.

Please use diff -ur. Virtually all of fink's patchfiles use that format.

OK, after more digging
Re: interactive packages such as Qt:
free/netbsd ports/pkgsrc have a mechanism for handling this.
`interactive' patches have variable `IS_INTERACTIVE' set true; build mode
can be unset in which case everything is built, `BATCH' in which case
interactive packages are skipped, or `INTERACTIVE'
I have one suggestion for this. When you have built everything
with nothing installed, you should build again with everything
installed. Building twice like this will find both missing
Depends and Conflicts...
I think it is a great idea.
