Re: Cannot compile libtool2

Hanspeter,

Your suspicions appear to be correct.  help2man-perl5162 is installed, but not perl5182:

 p   help2man                                  [virtual package]
*i*  help2man-perl5162       1.46.4-1          Generates man pages from program output
     help2man-perl5182       1.47.13-1         Generates man pages from program output

I cannot install help2man-perl5182 because it conflicts with the help2man virtual package:

Selecting previously deselected package help2man-perl5182.
dpkg: regarding .../help2man-perl5182_1.47.13-1_darwin-x86_64.deb containing help2man-perl5182:
 help2man-perl5162 conflicts with help2man
  help2man-perl5182 provides help2man and is to be installed.

Should I leave as is or should I uninstall the virtual package and install help2man-perl5182?

To be on the safe side for the dependency engine, I would make sure the package help2man-perl5182 is installed so that it's properly built for your current install. Before you do that, what is the output of `fink list help2man` ? Then run `fink install help2man-perl5182`.
