But fink-0.28.5 *is* in stable. The as yet unexplained episode is that for some people, the fink-0.28.5 package description, although it is available on their machine, is not seen by fink-0.27.16, until "fink index -f" is run. I don't know if this was your case, too, but it seems that the index database can get into an obstinate state where a simple "index" does not suffice to wake it up to the existence of new package descriptions. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
