Make sure that everything is as it should be according to the packaging

Yes, getting Gentoo and all the other groups working with Fink was a

organization for the new influx of developers, which makes forums like
this almost useless as well as
Try renaming /sw/fink/CVS to something else, and then do the
selfupdate-cvs again to reset your options.
On the other hand, if the account it's using is one with administrative

Though, come to think of it, I was wrong about -devel : I'm sure that
-users and -beginners have restricted postings, and they don't get
spam. Fink-devel is set up for open postings, because it's also the
channel to report feedback on unmaintained packages: no need to make
users subscribe

It's probably time to trim the docs again: there's a fair amount of
material that refers to package versions that no longer exist. I'm
going to start going through the docs and develop a list of text that

Well, my perspective on the situation is:
1) As Ben R. said, the problem is in the unstable tree, so it doesn't
