Re: Missing library file?

Dan,

I may have been unclear.

What I am saying is that if I try to build teckit it fails due to not fining libexpat.dylib so that failure is at build time.

If ir “reinstall” expat it does NOT create that library and so the failure continues.  I figured a reinstall would create that symbolic link.

Maybe I am wrong about that, and need to rebuild expat from scratch but I assumed a “reinstall” would reinstall and create the necessary symbolic links.

So
Fink build teckit — Fails
Fink reinstall expat — succeeds (package is listed as up to date)
Fink build teckit — Fails

So as far as I can tell
> expat1: /opt/sw/lib/libexpat.dylib
Is not installed created etc.   I *think* it is supposed to be a symbolic link to  /opt/sw/lib/libexpat.1.8.1.dylib
