Evolution Problems when running with FINK

[StarBuck]

Hi,

Well I'm very new to all this so I done some reading up on installed it got windowmaker installed. Then I installed Gnome I would of installed KDE but one of the files refused to come down. Something about a grok error whatever that is?

First of all I would like to say how cool fink makes things for people like me with very limited unix experience thanks for all the hard work

When I try to download evolution I get this error message any ideas?

[mailgate:~] starbuck% fink install evolution
sudo /sw/bin/fink install evolution
Information about 1226 packages read in 1 seconds.
pkg evolution version ###
pkg evolution version 1.0.5-1

fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The
candidates:

(1) gnome-vfs-dev: The GNOME virtual file-system libraries
(2) gnome-vfs-ssl-dev: The GNOME virtual file-system libraries, with SSL support

Pick one: [1] 1
Failed: Internal error: node for bonobo already exists

Thanks

Starbuck

Starbuck,

Please when you ask a fink question also post the following :

MacOS X version
Fink version (i.e. output of "fink --version")
XFree86 version
Developer Tools version


Have you configured fink to use unstable?
Have you made a fink selupdate-cvs ?

Cheers...

[StarBuck]

Sorry

Ok I have now posted the versions as requested

Mac OSX 10.1.4

Apple Developer Tools December 2001
Fink 0.4.0
Xfree86X 4.2.0

Any ideas what a Grok error is ??

I have edited fink.conf with the unstable lookup.
I am now trying the CVS Update as you suggested

Cheers

If you got an error like this:

>curl: (30) Server does not grok PORT, try without it!

Then, try running 'fink configure'.

When it gets to the question about using passive mode FTP, answer 'Y'.


Most of the time, that seems to work for this kind of problem.


Cheers...

Failed: Internal error: node for bonobo already exists


The above is the error I get.

Now I did notice when updating fink CVS it downloaded bonobo.

This is starting to hurt my head but its going in at least I think.

If it is too much for you, we continue another day...let me know.

Please run:

'fink list gnome' and post the result here.

We are getting near.

Ok, do the following two things:

'fink list bonobo'

and post it here.

Then run:

'fink install gnome-vfs'


Let me know
