While rsync is preferred over cvs, "cvs" in this case doesn't indicate that it's somehow more unstable than rsync, it is just the delivery mechanism for getting info files. Unless you have CVS conflicts when selfupdating, switching to rsync won't fix your build issues. However, it is best to make sure you're up-to-date, so try a "fink selfupdate-rsync" before trying your update-all again. If you still have issues, please report them to the maintainers of the failing packages, they are bugs. =) -- Benjamin Reed a.k.a.
