I am running MAC OSX 10.11.4
I tried updating fink by running the fink selfupdate command but it keeps 
returning the following
/usr/bin/rsync -az -v  
rsync://distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net/finkinfo//TIMESTAMP 
/sw/fink/TIMESTAMP.tmprsync: failed to connect to 
distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net: Operation timed out (60)rsync error: error in 
socket IO (code 10) at 
/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/rsync/rsync-47/rsync/clientserver.c(105)
 [receiver=2.6.9]### execution of /usr/bin/rsync failed, exit code 10Failed to 
fetch the timestamp file from the rsync server:

above.

I think it may be because I am behind a firewall. 
So I looked up the fink website and tried to do this using cvs package
First I tried to install the cvs package by the command
fink --use-binary-dist install cvs-proxy
but I am getting 
bash-3.2$ fink --use-binary-dist install cvs-proxyScanning package description 
files..........Information about 9742 packages read in 12 seconds.WARNING: your 
info file index has not been updated for 206 days. You should run'fink 
selfupdate' to get the latest package descriptions.no matching version found 
for cvsFailed: no package found for specification 'cvs-proxy'!
And it seems to ask me to do a fink selfupdate first, therefore stuck in a loop!
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I am pretty useless with unix/linux 
system
Thanks!
