I lost my hard-drive and recovered /sw from backup.  I reinstalled the OS 
(Jaguar in my case) all the fink packages I had previously installed.  For a 
period of time it appeared fink was operating normally.  When I periodically 
run fink selfupdate-cvs a few things happen that make me think something is 
happening "out there" such as '[package] X is no longer in the repository' and 
various lines of output start with "U" and "P".  When I look at /sw/etc/
fink.conf I do see unstable/main and unstable/crypto are in the line after 
"Trees:" (I want to use the unstable packages).

When I check to see what version of fink and gaim (as examples) are current I 
see the unstable current-10.2-gcc3.3 versions are 0.19.1-1 and 0.74-1 
respectively.  What I currently have installed are 0.17.1 and (I think) 0.71-1.

My version of gcc is 3.1 20020420.  I think it's obvious the compiler version I 
want is 3.3.  How do I get to gcc version 3.3?  Then...  How do I get fink to 
use the current-10.2-gcc3.3 branch?

This likely does not matter, but just in case.  The content of my .cvspass file 
is:

   :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/fink A

My ultimate goal is to move my stale /sw packages over to the branches that are 
being maintined.  I get the feeling I missed a grand conversion.  I was likely 
distracted by my unstable system.

One more thing...  My version of gaim (I just noticed -- sigh) is having errors 
at startup with undefined references as follows:

   dyld: gaim Undefined symbols:

Trace/BPT trap

I have freetype2 and freetype2-shlibs version 2.1.3-1 installed.  Perhaps 
that's not what I need?

Thank you for your help.
