CVS: compile of dpkg 1.9.20-4 failed
Authored by: Ranger Rick on Dec 12, '02 05:36:49PM

I believe at one point there was a buggy package (cyrus-sasl maybe?) that had an md5.h file that conflicts with the system's md5.h.

Try doing 'dpkg -S /sw/include/md5.h' and then remove whatever package it is that supplies it, and see if that helps.

If it doesn't, it could be a developer tools issue. Have you installed the July tools and all updates on top of it?

Yes, this is due to cyrus-sasl. Remove cyrus-sasl before updating.

Except openldap-ssl depends on cyrus-sasl and pine-ssl depends on openldap-ssl and I use pine-ssl! :-(

Ah, but it's far better to have a healthy fink install; I usually read my mail via ssh and mutt anyway...

Clobbering cyrus-sasl did the trick. Thanks.
