Actually, as far as I'm aware, it only does directories with the string "stable" in them, and then looks for the corresponding tree in the rsync repo before overwriting them, so you must have some incredibly unlikely Trees line that happens to work anyways. =)
I would tend to agree that it is doing the right thing with the rsync commands (looking for "*stable") but the "find" command doesn't seem to follow this pattern:
$ fink selfupdate
sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate
I will now run the rsync command to retrieve the latest package descriptions.
Updating stable/main
su clepple -c "rsync -az --delete-after -q 'rsync://fink.opendarwin.org/finkinfo/10.2/stable/main/finkinfo' '/sw/fink/10.2/stable/main/'"
Updating stable/crypto
su clepple -c "rsync -az --delete-after -q 'rsync://fink.opendarwin.org/finkinfo/10.2/stable/crypto/finkinfo' '/sw/fink/10.2/stable/crypto/'"
Updating unstable/main
su clepple -c "rsync -az --delete-after -q 'rsync://fink.opendarwin.org/finkinfo/10.2/unstable/main/finkinfo' '/sw/fink/10.2/unstable/main/'"
Updating unstable/crypto
su clepple -c "rsync -az --delete-after -q 'rsync://fink.opendarwin.org/finkinfo/10.2/unstable/crypto/finkinfo' '/sw/fink/10.2/unstable/crypto/'"
find . -name CVS | xargs rm -rf
rsync -az -q rsync://fink.opendarwin.org/finkinfo//VERSION /sw/fink/VERSION
touch stamp-rsync-live && rm -f stamp-cvs-live
What does your Trees: look like, and what is in your local dir?
Trees: local/main stable/main stable/crypto local/bootstrap unstable/main unstable/crypto
"local/main/finkinfo/gEDA" had some .info files that were checked out from my own CVS server.
$ fink --version Package manager version: 0.14.2 Distribution version: 0.5.3.cvs
I understand that this is probably not a common case, since most of the full-time developers will be using CVS over ssh (and therefore are not affected by the SourceForge backup CVS server downtime). I was keeping the files in CVS to have an easy way for adventurous gEDA users to occasionally snag new versions of the info files before I posted them to the new-package tracker.
Maybe this should get filed away in the bug tracker until after Panther is released. It's probably not the right time to fix this particular corner case-- I just wanted to make the issue known in case anyone else runs into it.
