Hi:

Didn't work this time.

No sources for me yet.  Maybe when I can afford another disk.  I've only 
got a Beige G3 - the lowest end machine that will run OS X (10.1.4 
currently).

Thanks again,
Jerry

Output was:

[localhost:~] jerry% fink selfupdate
sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate
Password:

(1)  Delete it and download again
(2)  Assume it is a partial download and try to continue
(3)  Don't download, use existing file

The file "LATEST-FINK" already exists, how do you want to proceed? [1] 1
rm -f LATEST-FINK
curl -f -L -s -S -O http://fink.sourceforge.net/LATEST-FINK

You already have the package descriptions from the latest Fink point 
release.
