What OS version are you on? If, indeed, you're on 10.4, then what you're missing are binary packages which were built in 2005 or thereabouts. If you want to shut those errors up you can do a couple of things: 1) Use "fink configure" and turn off "Use binary packages when available" 2) Edit a few of the files from fink to point thee binary distribution in the right direction. I don't have access to 10.4 so I can't actually test what needs to be done, but try adding the following lines to your /sw/etc/apt/sources.list (don't replace the current ones yet): deb http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/10.4 stable main crypto deb http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/10.4 release main crypto If those do indeed work then I think I know what the edits within the fink code should be to fix this up right. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Put Bad Developers to Shame Dominate Development with Jenkins Continuous Integration Continuously Automate Build, Test & Deployment Start a new project now.
