Hi Anna, I believe you are referring to this text: > Collect the list of installed packages with the following command: > dpkg --get-selections | cut -f1 > fink_packages.txt > before updating to 10.7 to dump the package names to a text file. referenced here: http://www.finkproject.org/download/10.7-upgrade.php?phpLang=en So I think that you should have run the command before updating. Perhaps someone else has a suggestion for you though. --Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
