[Skencil-users] Building on Mac OS X

[Christian von Ferber]

Hi Martin,

skencil is definitely listed in my finkcommander though it is classified
"outdated".
Submitting a wildcard list command to fink results in what is shown below.
The "(i)" indicates an installed package.
So it seems that the search on the site does not extend to all available
packages.
Therefore I do recommend to install fink.

Best wishes,

Christian

I'm lost. I searched for "skencil" on finkproject.org and it "Matched 0

"did not match any documents."

Obviously, there's no point building Fink to install skencil if there's no Fink
package for skencil.

What do I do now?
