Re: perl 5.8.0

Did you install perl 5.8 manually?  If so, then I believe that you'll 
need to use the system-perl580 package instead.

Re: perl 5.8.0

What I meant was:  did you install 5.8 manually (i.e. in /usr/bin) 
before you tried to install it via Fink?  That would explain the 
existence of  /usr/bin/perl5.8.0 .

openssh 'No xauth data' warning

I just switched from using the ssh client that came with 10.2
(/usr/bin/ssh: OpenSSH_3.4p1) to Fink's (openssh 3.6.1p1-3). Now,
whenever I connect to a remove machine, I get a message:

  Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.

after entering my password but before the (remote) MOTD appears. This
happens when connecting to many different machines running several
different versions of ssh daemon. Except for HostBasedAuthentication,
my /sw/etc/ssh/ssh_config matches /etc/ssh_config. I've got a manually
installed x11 (4.2), and xauth exists in /usr/X11R6/bin.

My local DISPLAY is :0.0; when I connect, the remove environment has a
DISPLAY of 'localhost 12:0'. I have 'xhost +', and x11 things work
(remotely started xterm appears on my window).

So what's the story?

Which is why I like fink.  I know enough to really screw up my system,
but probably not enough to fix all of my screw ups.

That's a pretty good assumption :)  

I do appreciate the head's up, computer science classes start in a few
weeks and I may get into something beyond the GIMP and Sodipodi :)

rmail and postfix

In the Postfix distro, there's a rmail script but, afaik, it's not 
installed by the fink package. Could it be installed to help UUCP users 
to get their mails ?

Re: rmail and postfix

I had been having trouble with the Postfix package in fink. I wrote the 
maintainer and he said that he was no longer taking care of the 
package. No one else has stepped up to take it over.  If you go to 
www.postfix.org, the standard distribution is already tailored to build 
for OS X as well as many other platforms. It builds in just a few 
minutes. There's also a lot of other resources for Postfix on the site.

HTH,

Phil

Postfix is no longer supported

I had been having trouble with the Postfix package in fink. I wrote the 
maintainer and he said that he was no longer taking care of the 
package. No one else has stepped up to take it over.  If you go to 
www.postfix.org, the standard distribution is already tailored to build 
for OS X as well as many other platforms. It builds in just a few 
minutes. There's also a lot of other resources for Postfix on the site.

Hope this is useful information.

If you are already going through the trouble, please update the fink
package, so the rest of us don't have to do it also ;)
