I just tried to update with the first command (sudo fink selfupdate-cvs) and
ran into this after it finished with several lines like:

? dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/x11-wm/windowmaker-0.70.0-3.patch
but with different packages.

The actual error is:

cvs server: Updating .
P ChangeLog
cvs [update aborted]: cannot open .new.ChangeLog: Permission denied
### su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above.
Thanks for any help.
