Yeah, the binary distribution URL structure got changed after the project stopped supporting 10.4 several years ago. I don’t have access right now to anything that can run 10.4 or 10.5 to test a fix, but the places to change the location would be: /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/Config.pm /sw/lib/fink/mirror/apt As a workaround, you could also download the package manually from either of those URLs and use “sudo dpkg -i /path/to/gmt_3.4.5-1002_darwin-powerpc.deb”. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list Fink-beginners@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-beginners
