In general, you can use "fink dumpinfo -fallversons <packagename>" to access all of the known versions of <packagename> $ fink dumpinfo -fallversions graphicsmagick Information about 10617 packages read in 1 seconds. allversions: 1.3.7-2 bi 1.3.12-1 To roll graphicsmagick back, you can use "fink install graphicsmagick-1.3.7-2" My recollection is that I saw a similar error in the drawtiming package with graphicsmagick 1.3.12 but not 1.3.7-2, so I may need to apply a similar patch to octave-3.2.4 . - -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk535/MACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ+dpgCfcll8gnD6DezAa04BEIpHhPaX JGgAn0z8G4+LIcuTelasedY3wGUTxoBz =1Ywm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
