Thanks for the help sao, that did the trick, although dpgk asked for a command not in the root path, but that was an easy fix. (update-rc.d was in /sw/sbin instead of the root's path, a simple cp to /usr/sbin worked fine).

fragerybou,

Glad it worked.

same noise as above, with "Sorry, apt is already the newest version." mixed in there.

MervTormel,

If your apt tool is up to the newest version, then the problem seem to be in mixing source with binaries.

I have found through past experience that mixing the 2 is just not reliable ( for me ,anyway).


Cheers...

PS: Since I had problems mixing, I use source all the time, no binaries.

Hey sao, I seem to be running into the same problems Rusto was running into with mozilla. I've selfupdated and update-all'd many many times, reinstalled basically everything, and done everything you said to do. Neither Mozilla-1.1.0-1 or 1.1.0-2 work for me. They both give me the same errors which rusto reported. Using the stable 1.0 build of mozilla gave me a different compiler error involving darwin.c and the struct siginfo_t. I've basically given up on mozilla for now, since the uncompressed source for me is 324mb, about 6 times bigger than gimp. Frankly, that just seems a bit bloated for a web browser. But anyway, if you have any ideas, i'd love to hear them.

Thanks,

Geoff

fragerybou,

Yes, mozilla is a big monster. If you kept a copy of the installation log-errors, copy the last 15 lines and together with your system information post your problem to the fink-users list.

Cheers...

fragerybou, I've started a thread here so that we can keep this thread on topic.

Just for information:

There is no binary distribution for Jaguar yet. Thus, you cannot do something like 'apt-get install packagename' and have things work.


Follow the instructions on installing Fink from scratch on Jaguar here:

Or the instructions to Upgrade Fink for MacOS X 10.2 from here:
