You didn’t actually fail to selfupdate. What failed were a couple of operations related to integrating with your local binary repository and the official project binary distribution, which doesn’t yet exist for 10.11. You can solve these issues as follows: 1) Disable the remote binary integration by using “fink configure” 2) Run “fink scanpackages” to set up the missing Packages files for your local machine. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list Fink-beginners@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-beginners
