linux to an imac

2003-11-16 09:12 / fink, libxml2  »

Post-Panther and of course every little toad needs recompiling. Fink seems a little screwed as well, I just ended up reinstalling the whole thing then avoiding dselect like the plague.

Anyhow, even before Panther I had problems with the combo of libxml2, libxslt, the perl wrappers XML::LibXML, XML::LibXML::Common, XML::LibXSLT, and fink. The short, well the only answer, if you get errors like ...

dyld: /usr/local/bin/perl Undefined symbols:
_libiconv_open
make: *** [test_dynamic] Trace/BPT trap

... is to simply download libxml2 and libxslt from xmlsoft and get them going with the standard configure-make-install dance, rather than fink. God knows why.
