described in the following e-mail:
Re: [Fink-beginners] Xfree86 update Alexander Hansen Wed, 24 Apr 2002 06:09:37 -0700 I've seen this problem before. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't /etc/X11 an independent directory in XFree86 4.1, and is now a symlink under 4.2 ? How do I go about resolving the situation?

I don't even remember that. :-) What OS version are you on? (always a good piece of information to provide) And what are you attempting to do? (also a good idea) It sounds like (if you're on a contemporary OS version) you're trying to replace Apple's X11 with a fink xfree86 package. If that's so, then this error means you need to remove /etc/X11 ; e.g. via sudo rm -rf /etc/X11 Alexander K.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm running OS X Panther 10.39. Now I'm getting the following: The following package will be installed or updated: xfree86 dpkg -i /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/x11-system/xfree86_4.5.0-14_darwin-powerpc.deb (Reading database ... 42301 files and directories currently installed.)

Any more ideas?

Get rid of the symbolic link you installed and install the expat-shlibs package. That's what's provides the missing library. Alexander K.
