Source bootstrapping is possible with a single line change RCS file: /cvsroot/fink/fink/packages/debianutils-1.15-4.info,v retrieving revision 1.1 retrieving revision 1.2 diff -u -r1.1 -r1.2 --- debianutils-1.15-4.info 29 Sep 2001 13:47:33 -0000 1.1 +++ debianutils-1.15-4.info 24 Apr 2002 13:28:13 -0000 1.2 @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ Conflicts: mktemp Replaces: mktemp, tetex Provides: mktemp -Source: http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/debianutils/%n_%v.tar.gz +Source: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/fink/%n_%v.tar.gz SourceDirectory: %n-%v Patch: %f.patch CompileScript: make (i.e. change packages/debianutils-1-15-4.info to point to prdownloads.sourceforge.net/fink instead of debian.org.) The problem is Debian removed the 1.15.4 sources for debianutils. Once you respecify it to come from fink instead, a source bootstrap (i.e. ./bootstrap.sh /sw) works. --Brian Bechtel _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
