I've discussed with a few people in the past the idea that we should modify our setup so that a list of mirror sites for use by apt-get is under fink's control, just as other kinds of mirror sites are under fink's control
It seems like this may be the moment we need to implement this (on an emergency basis, it seems). My idea was that fink should actually write (or modify) the sources.list file. If you update the mirror choices, fink would write the correct entry into sources.list. In order to allow users to include unofficial binary depositories, there should also be a prompt during mirror selection "would you like to use unofficial binary depositories? if so, give the address here", and allow users to do this an arbitrary number of times. Can anybody else think of other features this would need to have? -- Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
