Hi,
This is a question concerning downgrading libxml2 again. So, I have
libxml2-2.4.25 installed currently. I wanted to downgrade to version 2.4.23.
I downloaded both the .info and .patch files for 2.4.23 and moved them into
the /sw/fink/10.2/local/main/finkinfo directory. I also moved the equivalent
files for 2.4.25 out of both stable and unstable finkinfo directories
(although Alexander indicated that this is not necessary).
I then issued a 'fink install libxml2-2.4.23' command. This is the
installation log:
> sudo /sw/bin/fink install libxml2-2.4.23
> Reading package info...
> Homepage: http://www.xmlsoft.org/ in
> /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo/libxml2-2.4.23-1.info
> Updating package index... done.
> Information about 1714 packages read in 13 seconds.
>
> pkg libxml2 version 2.4.23
> Failed: no matching version found for libxml2
> [borcim70:~] chia%
I thought that it could not find the tarball, so I downloaded the source
tarball from gnome cvs and put it into the /sw/src directory.
When I tried to install it again (same command as above), same error
message appeared.
I then modified the .info file to point the Source to the location of
the tarball on my hard drive:
> Package: libxml2
> Version: 2.4.23
> Revision: 1
> Maintainer: Max Horn <ma...@qu...>
> Depends: %N-shlibs (= %v-%r), %N-bin
> BuildDepends: gtk-doc, python, db3, readline, gdbm, gmp, expat, tcltk-dev
> Source: sw/src/%n-%v.tar.gz
> Source-MD5: 93ea03bcb105a0ae2ecea4f4fbd5bade
> Patch: %f.patch
> NoSetLDFLAGS: true
> <snip>
I still got the same error message when I tried to install.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks!!

The error message looks like fink isn't even seeing the .info file for 2.4.23, rather than a problem downloading it. Do you have local/main in your Trees: line in /sw/etc/fink.conf? Also, I have a .info file for libxml2-2.4.23-5 (rather than -1) if you'd like it. On Mon, 2002-10-28 at 13:15, Chia Hung wrote: > Hi, > > This is a question concerning downgrading libxml2 again.

The correct way is to specify the full name, version and revision. So the command would be: fink install libxml2-2.4.23-1 You should also check if maybe the libxml2-shlibs packages needs to be downgraded, w/o testing I am not sure if the above will do it. Out of curiosity, why do you need to use 2.4.23 as opposed to 2.4.25 ?

Is it possible to specify a version w/o the revision (maybe my memory is off)? On Mon, 2002-10-28 at 13:34, Max Horn wrote: > The correct way is to specify the full name, version and revision.

Dear Mr. Horn,
I am so glad that you answered my question. I thought about e-mailing
you as you are the maintainer of libxml2. However, I really do not want to
drag you away from doing other stuff (like maintaining Fink).
Anyway, I did not even thought of the issue with -bin and -shlib. I will
try to install all of them (provided that I can find the .info files;
probably at the same place where I found the .info file for libxml2).
To answer your question, and I certainly would like your help/input. The
reason that I want to downgrade was because I was trying to setup Gnome2 on
my machine. I got the .info files from Mr. Sekino. Several packages did not
install and all of these call for scrollkeeper in the postinst section of
their .info file. Mr. Sekino told me that scrollkeeper does not work with
the new version of libxml (2.4.25). The following is his e-mail:
> scrollkeeper seems not to work with libxml2-2.4.25. If you downgrade
> libxml2 to 2.4.23, scrollkeeper will works.
>
> I'm currently working on it.

Any suggestions? I would certainly appreciate any help to get gnome2
installed. Thanks!!

Thanks for all the help so far, but I am still having problems. I got .info and .patch files for rev 5 from Mr. Alexander Hansen. Replaced them with those of rev 1 and issued 'fink install libxml2-2.4.23-5'. I still got the same error.

I looked up the source directory for gnome (/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.0/2.0.2/sources) and saw libxml2-2.4.23-1. I downloaded libxml2-2.4.23 via xmlsoft.org. I put that file (and the .md5 file) into /sw/src directory. Is there a way that I can tell the .info file to use that? Is the problem due to Fink not able to find version 2.4.23? Or is the problem deeper than that (i.e. I need to uninstall/install something else first)?

If the file is in /sw/src then it should get used.

Well, I tried again and it certainly did not use that tarball (libxml2-2.4.23.tar.gz). I still get the same error message. The funny thing is that with the new .info/.patch files, when I do a 'fink list', I am still seeing libxml2-2.4.25 as being installed.

Maybe try uninstalling 2.4.25 then. You might have to use 'sudo dpkg -r --force-depends libxml2'.

When I did 'fink list' after removing the .info/.patch files for version
2.4.25 and added those of 2.4.23-5 into /sw/fink/10.2/local/main/finkinfo
directory, I don't see 2.4.23-5 to show up. Rather, it's still 2.4.25-3.
I then removed libxml2 ('fink remove libxml2'). It removed the package from
the list. I could not do the same for -bin or -shlibs because of dependency
problem.
Now when I do a 'fink index' then 'fink list', I don't libxml2 any more on
the list.
Alexander Hansen has suggested to force remove it. I will give that a try.
However, I think that Alexander Hansen is probably right earlier that Fink
is not seeing the .info file. Should I do 'fink selfupdate-cvs'? Would not
that replace the old libxml2 .info/.patch (version 2.4.23-5) files?

Check your /sw/etc/fink.conf file if local/main is actually in the list of enabled trees. If so, verify that the files are in the right spot: ls /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo/ "fink list" will always list the newest version of a given package - so it was completly normal that it still listed 2.4.25. Removing the libxml2 package or not should not at all affect the problems you see.

Yep, local/main is in the list of enabled trees. This is what the Trees:
line says:
Trees: local/main stable/main stable/crypto local/bootstrap unstable/main
unstable/crypto

Both libxml2-2.4.23-5.info and .patch are located in
/sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo.
This is what I have of libxml2.2.4.23:

I think that the .info file is complete. Now that I have done 'fink remove
libxml2', libxml2 does not show up at all when I do 'fink list' any more
(not even libxml2-2.4.23-5).
Any help will be greatly appreciated. It seems like this is the big hurdle
that I need to jump through to get Gnome2 installed.
Thanks.
