Hi everyone
One suggestion/idea for further spreading fink: Many of us, especially
in this group, have seen the benefits with open source software in
general and fink in special.
A lot of first class software is now available for mac user like Lyx,
scilab, oregano, xcircuit, ... The list of be
the tar ball has been removed, but I'll have 0.9 done once pre 4 with my
changes gets released.

Which file was not found? Fink itself, or the mplayer package, or the

The GNU-Darwin project took as their starting point a collection of several
thousand packages which already work on FreeBSD. In order to take

I've been using the Carbon Palm version for a few months now with a
Handspring USB cradle with almost no problems. The only problems I did
have were when my database got corrupted and I got the "User data
file..." error. Making a new database fixed the problem for me, however.

Thanks again for your interest. I will forward your remarks along to
development to see if we can get some more information regarding the
subject of OS X.

I had a similar problem on Friday, also with the December Tools, but
having done a selfupdate to the latest unstable packages, I built and ran
it today.

or so ago:

Fair enough. You'll need to have /usr/bin/make be a link to
/usr/bin/gnumake, instead.

Alexander,
thanks for the reply. on my system (Mac OS X 10.1.4), /usr/bin/make is a
symbolic link to /usr/bin/bsdmake. (i.e., /usr/local/bin doesn't enter into
the picture.)
so, i'm assuming there's some other problem.

I don't think it will work--because the fink build process is geared to
build a binary file for later installation, the 'make install' puts the files
in a temporary build directory.
If your BSD make is in /usr/local/bin, and that directory is ahead of
/usr/bin in your PATH, you could temporarily

How far away are we from being able to sync with a fink package instead of
