I could be wrong, but is it perhaps something to do with your fink configuration file? Maybe something to do with using passive mode for ftp? I think you need to set the use passive mode for ftp to yes if you haven't already. You run 'fink configure' to set it up. Someone may wish to correct me if I'm wrong though - although it won't hurt to try. Cheers, David.

Hi,

either I am a complete idiot (possible) or after reinstalling fink and xfeee86 (rootless) and Apple's X11, film gimp still refuses to > install:

curl -f -L -s -S -O ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/audiofile/0.2/audiofile- 0.2.3.tar.gz
curl: (16) Can't connect to ftp server
### execution of curl failed, exit code 16
Downloading the file "audiofile-0.2.3.tar.gz" failed.

(1) Give up
(2) Retry the same mirror
(3) Retry another mirror from your continent
(4) Retry another mirror
and every mirror fails, but if I connect to the server manually with ftp (command line or NetFinder) it has no problem. If I try the (echoed) command manually from the command line I get the same error:

curl: (16) Can't connect to ftp server
I am at a bit of a loss....
