I'm forwarding this on to the fink-beginners mailing list, in case
someone there has an idea.
Have you run "fink selfupdate" after installing fink?

Thanks David,
I'm not trying to install any specific version. If I run the list
in fink:
fink list
I receive the following list of 'x' programs:
p x11
[virtual package]
p x11-dev
[virtual package]
p x11-shlibs
[virtual package]
i xcode 3.2-1
[virtual package representing the developer tools]
p xfree86-base-threaded
[virtual package]
p xfree86-base-threaded-dev
[virtual package]
p xfree86-base-threaded-shlibs
[virtual package]
p xft1
[virtual package]
p xft1-dev
[virtual package]
p xft1-shlibs
[virtual package]
p xft2
[virtual package]
p xft2-dev
[virtual package]
p xft2-shlibs
[virtual package]
p xserver
[virtual package]
I tried
fink list | grep xfig
but couldn't find anything related to xfig.
As such, when I run
fink install xfig
or
fink install xfig-3.2.4-4
I receive:
Information about 310 packages read in 0 seconds.
Failed: no package found for specification 'xfig'!
It seems that fink doesn't have xfig in any of its repository
lists. I've reinstalled fink in 32bit and 64bit mode, and have set
it look at all primary mirrors to make sure it has the full list.
Any other suggestions much appreciated. Thank you!
James.

You are trying to install that older version rather than the
current version? "fink install xfig-3.2.4-4" should work.

Hello Mr. Morrison,
I got your e-mail address from the Fink page. I'm trying to
install xfig 3.2.4-4 on Snow Leopard, but fink won't list xfig in
the repository list. (Meaning, if I run fink list, it doesn't
show, even after running fink update-all). I've tried setting up
fink in 32 and 64-bit modes, but no success.
Do I have to explicitly tell fink where to find/download the xfig
package? If so, how do I do that?
Thank you very much for your time. Very much appreciated.
James.
