As the subject says, I am unable to run selfupdate, either from the
command line or from FinkCommander. The error says that -t/-f
wrappers not supported. I am running OS 10.3.3, fink .70.0 and I
have the latest version of XCode installed. Any idea what I need to
do
to get it to work? Thanks.

Can you paste the literal error message, along with the context?

Here's what I got when I ran selfupdate-cvs in FinkCommander:
Please note: the command 'fink selfupdate' should be used for routine updating; you only need to use 'fink selfupdate-cvs' or 'fink selfupdate-rsync' if you are changing your update method.
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 -q -z3 update -d -P
? stamp-rel-0.6.2

cvs [update aborted]: -t/-f wrappers not supported by this version of
CVS
### execution of cvs failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above.
I get the same error if I just try selfupdate.

I couldn't duplicate your error on my machine, which also has XCode 1.2 installed. What do you get if you run "cvs -v" and "which cvs" ?

Here's what I get:

Does this help? Mike
Well, you're not using some weird version of the cvs executable, What version of the fink package manager (e.g. via "fink --version" do you have)? There may be some hitherto unknown update bug going on.

All right, I'm stumped--everything seems reasonable.
Do you have a firewall set up so that you can't use rsync updates? If not, see if you can switch to rsync selfupdating--it tends to be more reliable, anyway.
