The Fink tools, which up to now have worked flawlessly, choked on installing python, since the port has some dependencies on OS X toolbox calls.
Jeff Whittaker, <jsw at cdc.noaa.gov>, the maintainer, helped remove the offending lines. It might make sense for Fink and other ports/packaging tools to make note of where they’re being used before patching and installing.
I next need to either make sure the USB support lets me use a 3 button mouse or hack the X config to work with a one-button mouse and some additional keypresses.
I’m building the KDE 3.0.1 port right now: 82 packages are being installed to resolve dependencies. Hope I have enough disk space. The machine will probably be chewing on that for 2 days.
I suppose a diff would be helpful. I may do that.
