gEDA-user: mac os x fink packages



Hi,

I was hoping someone might have some experience getting the geda-bundle to port to os x. I've done the fink thing, but there are dependency problems when I try to install it. I've gone through Charles Lepple's steps on his web page, and everything works up to the fink install geda-bundle, which is when I get these errors:

It doesn't matter which of the numbered selections I choose (I've tried all 18 combinations). Are there some environment variables to set? some path alterations to make? Here is my current PATH, when I log into terminal.


/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current:/usr/X11R6/bin


Maybe there is a problem with the package?

It would be incredibly great to get a /functioning/ eda going on my mac.

fink list geda gives me this:
