If I recall correctly, sometimes firewalls allow ordinary downloads but not apt-get operations. Try installing the cvs-proxy package and see if you can do an update from cvs. You probably should turn off UseBinaryDist in /sw/etc/fink.conf -- you'll have to edit it as root (e.g. "sudo pico /sw/etc/fink.conf"). You could potentially fall back on manual downloads of the binary archives--but lets see if cvs-proxy works. > Update got gcc 3.1 then choked on the next version > I have installed XCode from the panther install set.
