Anyway, you can read the Fink package description as instructions on
how to compile Singular successfully. For example, if you use the
configure option --without-dynamic-kernel, then the problem you were
running into does not show up.
Being all wet behind the ears, how does one go about doing this (finding
and reading the package description)? I looked in "/sw", found the
singular tarballs, but nothing in that looks like what I want; I found
.debs, but I don't see a good way to read those.
The "package description" is the file singular.info (in the directory
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/). It contains basically the
complete build and install instructions in a form that fink can execute
automatically, but it is also easily human-readable.
BTW, this singular.info file was written by one of the members of the
singular developer team, so I suppose he knows something about useful
configure options.
