Hey,
I tried to update fink to use rysnc today, I had been using CVS, and it failed.
I got the message: ### execution of /usr/bin/su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check error message above.
Then when I ran fink list it said that I needed to run sudo fink index, which I did.
Anyone know what I need to do? I have heard that rysnc is preferable to CVS
Thanks, -jj
You didn't provide any information that we can use to understand what's going on--there are multiple different failure modes that result in that as the last message--so I'll refer you to the catch-all CVS update failure FAQ:

rsync is indeed preferable.
