How do I change from the non-threaded version of Finks XFree86 packages to the threaded version (or vice-versa)?
If you are running the Fink version of XFree86 and you want to switch between the threaded and non-threaded versions of Fink, you need to manually remove the old version. This is done at the command-line with the commands:sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-base sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-shlibs sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-rootless sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-rootless-shlibs or to delete the threaded versions:sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-base-threaded sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-shlibs-threaded sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-rootless-threaded sudo dpkg -r –force-depends xfree86-rootless-threaded-shlibs FinkCommander also has a way to remove packages. In the source window, select a package, and then in the Source Menu use “Force Remove.” If you are using system-xfree86, see the previous question for removing it. Install the version of xfree86 you want: xfree86-base and xfree86-rootless xfree86-base-threaded and xfree86-rootless-thread
