[Fink-devel] Building an application bundle for a qt4-x11-based application

2007-10-27 Thread Ebrahim Mayat
Hello I just built the svn checkout of the qt4-based application hydrogen when linking against the fink installation of qt4-x11-4.3.2. Then, after editing a script (which was supplied with the sources) built the application bundle without any problem. $ ls hydrogen.app Contents

[Fink-devel] Leopard and echo -n breakage

2007-10-27 Thread Martin Costabel
I thought Apple had promised not to break echo -n in Leopard? They did it anyway. Not in /bin/echo, but in /usr/bin/make and in /bin/sh. Make uses its own built-in echo (or perhaps the one built into /bin/sh), and the one in Leopard doesn't understand -n. Packages that still have echo -n in

[Fink-devel] Mysterious bootstrap bug

2007-10-27 Thread Martin Costabel
A strange story that I cannot explain: I installed Leopard on a dual G5 and then bootstrapped fink-0.27.7. Then I installed tetex which refused to work; no fonts found at all. The weird thing is that all 12 files /sw/var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/*/updmap/*.map have the same content, namely two

[Fink-devel] A quick note of thanks

2007-10-27 Thread J Odell
Hi folks, Just a quick note to let you know how much I appreciate all the hard work done by all the fink devs, maintainers, documenters and coffee wranglers (if there are any). I am a graduate student in engineering. Thanks to your hard work, I do not need to sit endless hours in the

[Fink-devel] did Apple break env?

2007-10-27 Thread David Reiser
Following the 'compile myself' faq, I have my environment set up to allow me to use fink packages to build other things that aren't quite ready for fink. Part of the result of 'env' is: CFLAGS=-I/sw/include LDFLAGS=-L/sw/lib CXXFLAGS=-I/sw/include CPPFLAGS=-I/sw/include ACLOCAL_FLAGS=-I

[Fink-devel] molmol and Leopard

Does anyone have an insight on why the hack being used for freeglut fails when applied to the molmol package? Specifically, if you change the line... + -lSM -lICE -lm -lc -lGLU -lGL -lGLw -lmx in the molmol.patch file to... + -lSM -lICE -lm -lc -lGLU

[Fink-devel] impossible to use libGLw in Leopard

2007-10-27 Thread Jack Howarth
The molmol package will be unportable to Leopard until the current breakage in Xcode is fixed. The problem is that libGLw needs symbols such as _glXChooseVisual which only exist in the /usr/X11R6/lib copy of libGL.dylib and thus is unlinkable under Xcode 3.0. Jack

Have you seen http://wiki.finkproject.org/index.php/Fink:Packaging:Preparing_for_10.5#OpenGL_Bug ? I'm not sure it is the same issue with libGL.dylib that I had with aqbanking16, but the SetLDFLAGS addition worked for me. Dave On 27 Oct 2007, at 10:50:14 PM, Jack Howarth wrote: The

Re: [Fink-devel] impossible to use libGLw in Leopard

2007-10-27 Thread Jack Howarth
This is a corner case of the same problem with no possible workaround. The problem is that libGL is a unique library in that it needs to exist in a special X11 version with additional symbols. The libGLw library uses some of these symbols unique to the X11 version of libGL.dylib and thus the nasty
