OK, it's been a month since I originally ran into this problem, which
seemed like long enough that it was likely fixed, so I tried again. I
ran (via FinkCommander 0.5.4) seflupdate, then update-all, then tried
to install 'the' again. The exact same error occured.
Is it insufficient that this error is known to the 'the' maintainer
and this list? Do I need to send it to the 'pdcurses' maintainer as
well?
It sounds like it might be something I could fix myself if I knew
where to find the config file. But as far as I can tell, when
installing as I am, it is downloaded for the install, and erased
after the error occurs, so I have no access to it. In order to get
access to the config file I'm guessing I would have to do the Fink
equivalent of
apt-get -d the
[tweak the config file]
apt-get -b the
is that right?
Thanks.
