Fink Will Not Install

Question

Hi I am trying to install Fink on my Mac and I get as far as the ./bootstrap step. When I run it it says

Checking package... looks good (fink-0.38.5).

Checking system... i386-apple-darwin14.3.0

This system is supported and tested.

Distribution: 10.10

Architecture: x86_64

Checking cc... looks good.

Checking make... looks good.

Checking head... looks good.

Verifying that installed Xcode Command Line Tools version is supported...

6.3.2.0.1.1431401888 is OK

Verifying that installed Xcode app version is supported...

Found Xcode version: 6.3.2

ERROR: This version of fink needs at most Xcode 6.2 on this OS X version.

I'm not exactly sure what to do or why it is saying this. If someone could help that would be great!

Answer 1

The error message is already self-explained.

Your Xcode is too new (oops). Fink-0.38.5 supports Xcode 6.2 or below only.

p.s.

fink-0.38.5 was released on 14 May, 2016. This release enables official OS X 10.10.3 support, and reverts a change made in fink-0.38.4 to restore the requirement that the /usr/X11R6 convenience symlink be present for the x11* virtual packages to be active. (Source: http://www.finkproject.org/ )

well, this version is released in future ?!
