Are you running anti-virus software? There's a little blurb on the fink main page (which I'll quote): A number of recent reports on the fink-users mailing list have indicated problems (including kernel panics and infinite hangs during patching) when using Fink to compile packages while anti-virus software is installed. You may need to switch off any anti-virus software before using Fink. > > I am using fink version: > > Package manager version: 0.10.0 > Distribution version: 0.4.1.cvs > > are these the latest updates?
