Hi there, I am attempting to update fink to 0.81 version. Currently fink claims to be version 0.26. Ultimately the process halts because: "Failed: selfupdate method 'rsync' requires the package 'dev-tools'"
Here is my update process. Anybody provide a cure please? ---- snip --- Macintosh-2:/sw/bin root# ./fink -v Fink 0.26.1 Macintosh-2:/sw/bin root# ./fink selfupdate Failed: selfupdate method 'rsync' requires the package 'dev-tools' Macintosh-2:/sw/bin root# ./apt-get update Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/main Packages Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/main Release Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/crypto Packages Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/crypto Release Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/main Packages Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/main Release Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/crypto Packages Hit http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/crypto Release Reading Package Lists...
