Alex, This did no good at all. I only have around 35 items installed and 10+ are not fink-based installations (e.g. Java, JDKs, APPLE OSX etc).
I did realise I have Virex7.2 installed, but not running - I am trying to upgrade to 7.2. So next question is how do I torch the Fink/Fink Commander world so I can be totally fresh and it begins from cleanly? Tim On 25/3/04 3:27 pm, "Alexander K.
