My experience has mostly been with ppc and i386 fat building.
Going all fat isn't terrible. I
While trying to build nessus-ssl, I came across an interesting
problem with libdnet. The root of the problem is
10.4-transitional/stable libdnet installs the shlibs as

One of the fringe benefits of having a unified Fink/DarwinPorts distfile
fetching system is a comparison of MD5's for files listed in both projects.
The fetching script complains when there is a mismatch in what the
desired MD5 of the distfile is. I've mentioned this on IRC from time
to time, but

As you can see in the patch, that is what it does. Uses the
Something I have been toying with for a while now is fink being able
to use apt-get-able packages. Sometimes when building something large,
many of the dependency packages are already in a bindist somewhere, and
I'd rather not build each and every one, just the packages newer than

You're right, it probably should. What is currently
in 0.17.1 should work with virtually all versions of rsync
(as long as 'rsync' is really rsync). But, an explicit path
is more reliable.

It appears that xdvi is trying to call setsid() after vfork().
Just about the only valid thing to do after vfork() is exec().
I'll bet this is your problem. You may try examining xdvi's
usage of setsid() after the vfork().
However, it looks like the parent is simply exiting after the
vfork. In th
