There's a one-liner (or may few-liner) idea for it on the fink wiki. Executive summary: copy it to stable and try to 'fink rebuild' it, using command-line flags that hide the unstable tree and all installed packages so you only see the stable .info collection. If fink doesn't bomb due to missing dependencies, all deps are in stable. > > 2.

Generally nothing should ever be "newer" in a stable branch than in a development branch, and *definitely* should not lower the %r because that would mean recycling that %r for a package that isn't the same as last time you used it (violates the Prime Directive). dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel
