What specific > packages? actually, this does not come up as often as you might think. if you want the most packages, add unstable/main and unstable/crypto to your fink.conf file (usually in /sw/etc). this will give you access to the latest packages, but at a small price. Some of them are not fully functional, and/or buggy. this is the best way to help, though, because the more good reports the maintainers receive, the faster they can be put into stable. if there are packages you want ported, go to the request tracker and make a request, or read the docs and try it yourself :-) HTH, -chris zubrzycki - -- PGP public key: http://homepage.mac.com/beren/publickey.txt ID: 0xA2ABC070 Fingerprint: 26B0 BA6B A409 FA83 42B3 1688 FBF9 8232 A2AB C070 ======================================================== "Sadly, text alone cannot convey the depths of my sarcasm." _______________________________________________________________ Hundreds of nodes, one monster rendering program.
