mtr traceroute won't install
Authored by: wolfy on Jan 10, '03 09:43:09PM

I don't recall having any problems with the install, and certainly nothing with gtk. It's possible you've got some sort of problem with the gtk installation in Fink, so a reinstall might be appropriate before you try to do any additional compiles on your own.

The link from make to gnumake is standard I believe.

I do remember having mtr dumped into /usr/local/sbin, and having to add that to my PATH. Not a big deal that - just mtr installing someplace that isn't standard under OS X.

mtr traceroute won't install
Authored by: blip on Jan 12, '03 09:17:27AM

Hi,
I did a find on 'gtk' on my machine and found the following:
/sw/etc/gtk
/sw/include/gtk-1.2/gtk
/sw/share/themes/Default/gtk
/sw/share/doc/gtk+

So, I have some aspect of gtk. Are you recommending redownloading fink, or just using fink (dselect) to acquire gtk?

Also, I installed mtr on my home computer after installing the devlopers tools. ./configure appeared to work as it did for me before (with the same gtk error) but then I get the same error as 'wealthchef' above:
dyld: mtr Undefined symbols:
mtr undefined reference to _stdscr expected to be defined in /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib
Trace/BPT trap

I did the fix recommended by removing the underscores n the curses.c file and reinstalled mtr. This did not fix it. Do you have any advice in this area? In searching the web it appears that this is related to the fact that I have upgraded from 10.1 to 10.2 and that the binary file is looking for _stdscr in libSystem.B.dylib instead of libcurses.dylib. I need to modify the binary? But which of the many mtr files is that?

Thanks again,

Bruce

You can always just do a 'fink rebuild mtr', which will recompile mtr against current libraries, which will sometimes fix quirky issues with programs you built under an older OSX version.
