Hi Lorraine: All of the python packages in fink have suffixes that correspond to version numbers, so if you wanted to use pymol with the most current python, you should issue
fink selfupdate; fink update-all; fink install pymol-py25 I would have thought that would automatically ensure you have python25 and pmw-25 installed. I'm a bit suprised that you list pmw-py22 as one of the options, as it does not exist in the current 10.4 branch of fink. The only thing I can think of is that you aren't using the current 10.4 branch of fink, but are still running the 10.3 branch of fink or the 10.4-transitional branch that was phased out a year ago. Anyway, you need to install the pmw verstion that corresponds to the pymol version. I've cc-ed the maintainer in case he has any insights. I thought installing pymol would have forced you to install the right version of pmw.

I can install and compile the program under the Fink environment. When I try to run the program I get an error message that basically says that the program can't find pmw. Now, I realize that this is a dependency- so I checked with fink to see what was installed EXACTLY (since I thought it was installed already). What is specifically installed is: Pmw-py22 Pmw-py23 Pmw-py24 And Fink says that pmw is installed, but it is a virtual package, where the previously mentioned packages are actually the ones that provide the widgets. What's the best way to work around this? How can I get the old pmw package under fink? Thanks in advance, Lorraine -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lorraine Cavanaugh, Ph. D.
