He also deleted the 1.4.4 version from his ftp site, which is causing the problems you're experiencing. You can still get the source for slang 1.4.4 and compile it. The file is located at: http://fink.sourceforge.net/bindist/source/ download slang-1.4.4.tar.gz to /sw/src and type: %sudo fink install slang That should do the trick and enable you to install the rest. deselect will probably also recognize the file and proceed installing things, if you prefer using that interface. deselect is pretty nice once you understand how it presents the information. Good luck Brian (I just went through this trying to install gnome) _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-beginners
