I'm trying to re-install fink from scratch. I've been making do with
my old (Tiger) installation, but need an emacs that generates its own
X windows and some package upgrades.
X-11 is upgraded with the 2.2.0.1 package, the fink base installed
after removing InstallationCheck.
Fink commander runs, but complains "could not determine XFree86
version number" and proceeds to install xfree86 when I try a a basic
emacs21 install.
Will this ever work? There are too many of the old programs that
complain of "Fatal malloc_jumpstart() error" because the installation
migrated from a PPC to this i486 along with the Leopard upgrade.
