Re: [Fink-beginners] Xcode 8 and command line tools

[Marc B. <mbo...@ma...>]

Thanks, Alex.

Perhaps I jumped the gun.  When updating a package, Fink warned of the version mismatch and advised that compile errors could result.  Some packages built.  Others failed.  I recall encountering a problem updating an imagemagick library. and another package or two.  But I updated Fink itself, which looks to have removed that warning, and I’ve been able to compile at least some of the packages whose build previously failed.  I believe the only package I cannot update now is openmpi.

The mismatch in versions between Xcode and the command line tools is causing build failures.  Should I downgrade to Xcode 7 or is there a newer version of command line tools out there?

And if your version of “fink-package-precedence” isn’t up-to-date, that may be indirectly responsible for some of the issues—Apple changed the behavior of the “otool” executable.  But we’d definitely appreciate any bug reports before you update fink-package-precedence and/or downgrade Xcode. :-)
