I was trying to use the GIMP, which requires X11. So I was like "o ok x11sdk.pkg i will install this." But that doesn't work, and now I can't install X11User.pkg and I have no clue how to get rid of X11SDK. Please help.
[help] Uninstalling X11SDK?
The X11 SDK is used for for porting UNIX apps into OS X compatible ones that run under X11.app. If I'm correct, you'll find the X11.app installer you're looking for in the second OS X install CD, and you can remove the X11 SDK by typing into a Terminal windows "sudo /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl", pressing Return, and then typing in your password(the window will not respond with * marks, it will just remain blank even when you type your password in) and pressing return. It should go unresponsive for a little while. Once your Terminal is back at the prompt screen and with no error messages, you'll have unistalled the X11 SDK as well as your entire Xcode Developer Tools Folder and installation, so you'll have to reinstall Xcode if you want to play with it though.
When I do what you said I get this: http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/3725/un...devtools9yg.png
In Applications>Installers>Xcode Tools>Utilities there is a uninstall-devtools.pl which I tried with this result: http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/6053/un...evtools27jb.png
So I put "sudo" before all that: http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/9294/un...evtools38oo.png
Now, I'm not sure what exactly is supposed to happen, but the Xcode folder is still there. When I try to install X11 (X11User.pkg from apple.com) I get this: http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/1679/x11user8ke.png
Also, neither install disc has any plain old X11. Disc 1 has an Xcode Tools folder identical to the one in Apps > Installers and Disc 2 is just OS 9 support stuff.
EDIT: I found X11User.pkg on OS X Install Disc 1 and it installed fine. Problem solved. ![]()
Oh, silly me, uninstall-devtools.pl is a Perl script! You have to type in "sudo perl /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl".
