That's entirely possible. I'm not sure that our cvs-proxy package works under Leopard, nor do I have good information for how to use the proxy in the built-in cvs from Leopard (since it hasn't been an issue for me). Unfortunately we haven't yet developed a selfupdate method over http (time+resources) to get around this problem. Also, unfortunately, the unofficial binary distributions (less bothered by firewalls) that know of don't happen to have nco in binary format. For now, I can suggest downloading the package descriptions from the web via http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/fink/dists/10.4/ Download the .info and .patch files and move them into the appropriate places in your Fink tree. We'll try to come up with a better option. > On Fri, Jul 18, 2008 at 11:25 AM, Alexander Hansen > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> On Jul 18, 2008, at 11:13 AM, Colleen Mikovitz wrote: >> >>> I too am getting a "package not found" when I try to install nco.
