I'm running 7b68 on a dual G4, and bootstrap.sh fails to build apt; is a fix or workaround available?
I assume you mean the 0.5.3 bootstrap from the tarball? That definitely won't work...
I checked the archives, but didn't find anything helpful.
Panther is not officially supported.
I know.
If you want to be able to limp along until we have it officially supported, you can bootstrap fink from CVS. See "Updating the Package Manager" at:
http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/cvsaccess/index.php
Not everything will work, and likely anything you build there will have incompatibilities with what gets released officially from Fink as far as panther support, so be prepared to start over when we have something that's working better. =)
That's fine. I normally salvage /sw/src and reinstall from source periodically anyway.
This page doesn't talk about how to get started; just how to upgrade a working install. I will copy /sw from my Jaguar partition onto my Panther partition, and "fink selfupdate-cvs; fink update-all"; news at 11.
