Hi all,

after attempting fink selfupdate-cvs, which has worked for the most part, I'm now getting

I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions.
After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then
update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'.

cvs -z3 update -d -P
cvs update: could not open /Users/jonathan/.cvspass: No such file or directory
cvs [update aborted]: use "cvs login" to log in first
I assume that's what you have to do. When you run "fink selfupdate-cvs" for the first time, it runs the cvs login command for you. The result is then stored in your ~/.cvspass file, so that upon subsequent updates you don't have to login any more. But when your ~/.cvspass file gets removed somehow, you'll have to do another login. Try

cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/fink login

When it asks for a password, simply hit return. The try selfupdate again.

Does it have anything do do with the fact that I just installed Apple's X11 beta 2?
I don't think so.
