[Fink-users] Trouble with "svn"

[Peter S. <pet...@gm...>]

I am trying to download svn via:

fink install svn

and there are some dependencies that need to be loaded. One of them is the
libgettext3-dev. Here's where it gets funk. I used the "list" command and it
shows that I have libgettext8-dev. When I run the command to install svn, it
says that it needs to load libgettext3-dev, I tell it yes. Then, I get an
error message saying it cannot resolve the conflict with libgettext8-dev and
libgettext3-dev. Then it tells me that I have libgettext3-dev installed. It
suggest the following three options:

fink scanpackages
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgettext3-dev=0.14.5-2

So, I try all of them and then try the whole process again, starting with
fink install svn. Still getting the same issue.

I tried fink list and it shows that I don't have libgettext3-dev installed.
WAIT! I thought it said I did? Anyway, I tried removing libgettext8-dev, and
then installing libgettext3-dev. Everything seemed to work fine. Now, I
tried installing svn, this time instead of saying that libgettext3-dev is a
dependency that needs to install, it says libgettext8-dev needs to install.
So, I select yes. Again, the same error. I can't seem to with with this one.
And fink list still shows that I don't have libgettext3-dev installed. I am
really confused and in need of some help.
