You're free _not_ to use "update-all". Fink will let you update packages (and their versioned dependencies) individually. That's one way to keep from having to compile a bunch of stuff. One exception is that a selfupdate with rsync or cvs will force the base packages to update; there's not really a way around that. As for the bug: I don't recall having seen a report of it, so perhaps nobody knew about it until now. > - -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktGhQsACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ9a4ACffFoqTpSVNSbrll0vapfUY1r9 clcAnjxC4a6baffCov6EW89LM2FDpoWf =V7Do -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
