The problem is that Dan has an extremely old mirrors list that has no longer much to do with reality. And since it and his fink version are so ancient, he cannot update it. I doubt that with the usual fink tools like "fink configure" he will be able to dig himself out of this hole. Some manual fiddling with fink.conf and sources.list will be necessary. This is starting to become a serious problem: The only Fink version that comes with a binary installer is so old (three and a half years) that it is practically impossible to make it work. I am cross-posting this now to fink-core, because I think it is time that the responsibles come to a decision: Either Fink drops the pretense to have a binary installer and a binary distribution and warns people off from using the existing ones, or they organize the effort to produce a new binary installer and binary distribution (which, unfortunately, would nowadays mean to produce 4 to 6 of them at the same time; but it would still be doable). There should at least be a final binary distribution for 10.4 (ppc and intel), and then 10.4 should be led to rest. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
