Hello.

Being somewhat seasoned UNIX and Debian/GNU Linux user I installed the 
Fink pretty much immediately after macbook purchase.

After I got most of the stuff working, I started to wonder how to 
exactly update package lists with Fink? To explicate what exactly do I 
mean with this, I give one concrete example.

Wireshark is available in unstable/stable distribution, as source 
package. At least according to Fink project and package pages:
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/wireshark .

However, doing 'apt-cache search wireshark' leaves me empty handed and 
graphical gizmo of FinkCommander seems to be equally helpless.

Running 'apt-get update' doesn't seem to affect the problem in any way, 
so there must be some other stuff I should be running before package 
lists are updated.

Any suggestions?
