Ah, of course - thanks ;-) So, now I have the following: Info2: << Package: python-biopython-py%type_pkg[python] Type: python (2.3 2.4 2.5) Source: none Version: 1.40 Revision: 2 Depends: biopython-py%type_pkg[python] (>= 1.40b), fink-obsolete- packages Description: OBSOLETE, - use biopython-py%type_pkg[python] instead Maintainer: Koen van der Drift <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CompileScript: echo "%N is an obsolete package. Install biopython-py% type_pkg[python] instead." > README InstallScript: true DocFiles: README License: OSI-Approved << My understanding of this mechanism (of getting rid of obsolete packages) is that it is supposd to give me a warning, and install the newer package instead. But when I try to install the obsolete package, it will still make a deb file. So, is the above correct, or do I still need to change something? Here's the terminal output: koen$ fink install python-biopython-py25 Information about 7195 packages read in 1 seconds. The package 'python-biopython-py25' will be installed.
