Subject: Re: [Fink-devel] Mystery (Was Re: [Fink-beginners] update-all, install gthumb, install exiv2 problem...)

Wonder if the older CVS revision of the file is cached in fink's
databases internalls? 'fink index -f' would clear out that mess.

This sounds like it may work:  if the cached package description is stuck on an old version, then that can indeed cause this type of confusion.  Try running

fink index -f

to force fink to rebuild its cached information against what is actually on your system.

It seems that something new happened:

% fink index -f
Scanning package description files..........

[% fink list fink
Scanning package description files..........
Information about 4070 packages read in 2 seconds.
 i   fink             0.28.5-41    The Fink package manager
 i   fink-mirrors     0.28.5.2-1   Mirror infrastructure
 i   fink-obsolete-p  0.1-1        Base package for obsolete packages


I guess that the cleaning did work.

So full of enthusiam, I run fink install gthumb (which was what I wanted to do originally), and after two hours, I got the error message for one of the N packages to be installed:

Failed: can't install package xml-sax-expat-pm588-0.38-1

Grrr... I'm cursed!

Attached, the file which contains the last output lines of fink install gthumb...
