[Fink-users] x11 missing

Many thanks- created this symbolic link. Still getting the same error though, but good to know about X11R6. Doesn't seem to matter whether I use cvs or rsync when I selfupdate, problem persists, and I do have the directory /usr/X11 so that's not the problem at least... it's not an empty directory e

Ah. It says that libX11.6.dylib is missing- I can send a dump of fink-virtual-pkgs --debug to the list, but it is indeed quite long and I don't know how much of it is relevant if anything else is. (Is this file easy to recover from my install disc?) Thanks again!-Eric On Mon, Sep 28, 2009 at 11:5

After "forget"ting, installing X11 from the installer on the CD, and running fink selfupdate, I receive the message WARNING: you have an incomplete X11 installation. See http://finkproject.org/faq/usage-packages.php#special-x11-debug for details on repairing it. The webpage (and the other which

Fixed apparently on just trying again (and reinstalling xcode also just because), as that webpage suggests might happen - sorry about that! Other problems but they don't fall under the category of "x11 missing" anymore and apparently some things are compiling, which was not the case earlier. Much a
