Curiously, the lines
~% sudo apt-get update
~% sudo apt-get install dpkg
seem to indicate everything is OK:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Sorry, dpkg is already the newest version.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Be that as it may, the lines
~% fink install dpkg
~% fink selfupdate-cvs
~% fink update-all
each produce the same final output:
can't find curses file
make[2]: *** [curkeys.h] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-dselect] Error 2
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 2
### execution of failed, exit code 2
Failed: compiling dpkg-1.10.9-2 failed

Umm...dpkg is what fink actually uses to install/remove files.
Since it's a core file, it should get updated when you use "fink
selfupdate-cvs"

I've never used Debian that I know of, but I see that my "dpkg" is
out of date:

Still, when I try to update it with
fink install dpkg
my terminal churns through a lot of stuff and finally prints out
can't find curses file
make[2]: *** [curkeys.h] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-dselect] Error 2

Anyone have any idea what the problem is?
