Thanks for the help and the link. This explains a lot.
However I'm having a follow on problem. Based on the input earlier I went with the 'fink selfupdate-cvs'. (which seems like it agrees with the link). Now, I have what seems the be the latest install and package version: Package manager version: 0.9.8 Distribution version: 0.3.2a.cvs And there are packages now marked with '(i)', which I want to get updated. But if I run dselect or apt-get upgrade it doesn't think that there is anything to upgrade. [~] root# apt-get upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. If I go into dselect it lists the old version numbers as installed and upto date. If I run fink upgrade-all it downloads the source and starts building from scratch, which I don't want to do if the binaries are available to install. What am I doing wrong now? -Rich --- Original --- From: Max Horn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Alexander Strange <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Rich Ramos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Fink Users <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 3/18/02 11:47 PM +0100 Subject: Re: [Fink-users] upgrade from 0.3.1 to 0.3.2a?
