Re: [gnome-core] fink binary installation of gnome-doc-utils (0.10.3-1) fails

[Timothy H. <tf...@gm...>]

Well, the whole reason I started out by installing python25 rather than
the newer python26 was because the former had a binary release and that
made me think I might get it up a little faster ...

But apparently not! Tim

P.S. gtk-doc 1.11-6 builds just fine when fooled into depending only on
gnome-doc-utils 10.3-1; on my head I know.
