I deleted both info files, ran fink selfupdate, commented out the PatchScript line in the info file in unstable, and then copied the info file in unstable to the one in stable. I am still unable to successfully compile ec-fonts-mftraced. Same thing happens even if I don't copy the unstable version to stable. The unstable tree is active. -- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Phil Thomson, BFA, MFA [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.philthomson.ca/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
