Hello,
I have been trying to install to different packages that require gtk+2-dev.
The packages are matplotlib-py25 and imagemagick. These are bein installed
on a machine running Darwin Kernel Version 9.2.2 using fink. In trying to
do this, I never get through the installation as I get errors for
gtk+2-dev.
On my first attempt I simply did 'fink install imagemagick'. It bailed out
with the message:
Failed: can't create package gtk+2-dev_2.6.10-1004_darwin-i386.deb
I had gotten a worse problem with matplotlib-py25, because this
installation froze my display 3 times.
Then, I went through the FAQ page:
http://www.finkproject.org/faq/comp-packages.php?phpLang=en#Leopard-libXrandr
and found a bug for something similar for gtk+2, where it was suggested to
run:
sudo perl -pi.bak -e 's|2.0.0|2.1.0|' /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.la
I did this and it did not fix the problem. Specifically, what happened was
that when I tried to install both imagemagick or matplotlib-py25, I would
get the following message:
Failed: can't install package gtk+2-dev-2.6.10-1004
Now I am not sure if the 'perl' script above made it worse, or just did
nothing. Also, I am clearly still not able to get the packages I need
installed.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks,
