Hallo,
Up till now i'm following the instructions from Tom Schouten: http://zwizwa.fartit.com/pd/pdp/overview.html to get pdp installed on osx.
On this moment i'm experiencing his note: 'The OSX version depends on Fink http://fink.sourceforge.net/, which is not in the "point & click" stage yet, so setting it up will require some efford.' by following the instructions of the earlier mentioned link by Gon Zifroni: http://ydegoyon.free.fr/pidip-for-osx.txt
I updated GCC, installed Fink but get stuck when i want to install the needed libs:
gsl-shlibs libquicktime0-shlibs
I already tried 'fink selfupdate-cvs', but that didn't help me getting the needed libs. This is what i get:
Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done E: Couldn't find package libquicktime0-shlibs
Does anyone knows how to get these libs? The faq-page of fink http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-fink.php#unstable didn't help me any further; it suggests to copy the needed files to /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo But 1: i the files named
gsl-shlibs libquicktime0-shlibs
aren't there. I also changed the config. file and ran selfupdate.cvs, but it still couldn't find the packages.
thnx
Sara

Hmm. I'm looking for it, and it seems like the gsl package isn't ported to 10.3 yet: http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/gsl-shlibs
I'm looking into installing it manually at the moment...

adam,
i think i found them. via the fink-list i got some help:
- Run commands:
ls /sw/fink/10.2-gcc3.3/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/libq* ls /sw/fink/10.2-gcc3.3/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/gsl*
- If they show up:
--> check the Trees: line in /sw/etc/fink.conf to see what trees Fink is looking for. You have a couple of options:
- If "unstable/main" isn't there, add it in, then run "fink index"
again. This will set you to look at the unstable tree for everything.
- Or you can copy the files into
/sw/fink/10.2-gcc3.3/local/main/finkinfo, add "local/main" to the
Trees: line, and run "fink index".
That worked for me.
hi,
thanks for the feedback, but in these installation notes : http://ydegoyon.free.fr/pidip-for-osx.txt, we were using "Fink Commander" and did all from the graphical interface. have you tried that?
it should be equivalent though..
cheers, sevy

Yes, Sara, thanks for passing on the hints.
Yves, I tried it with Fink Commander today, and I ran into the same problem, as I detailed before: the package maintainer hadn't updated gsl- shlibs for 10.3.x yet. I'm assuming you/Pablo created the package on 10.2?
<grumble> This is the sort of reason why I don't like Fink. You trade in one sort of dependency for another... expecting a central maintainer to keep everything in synch and up-to-date. </grumble>

yes, the machine was :
iBook 900Mhz G3 OSX 10.2.8

guess it's like debian, of course, you can still install the libs from sources, i would rather have recommended that myself, but, then, i'm always objected that 'users' don't want to do it that way.
