I'm trying to install python21, but the install fails: [oscar:src/python21-2.1.3-4/Python-2.1.3] irray% fink install python21 sudo /sw/bin/fink install python21 Information about 1252 packages read in 4 seconds. pkg python21 version ### pkg python21 version 2.1.3-4 The following package will be installed or updated: python21 curl -f -L -O ftp://ftp.python.org/pub/python/2.1.3/Python-2.1.3.tgz % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Curr.

I tried a manual download and then a manual unpack, which just doesn't happen -- when I do [oscar:~] irray% tar -xzvf Python-2.1.3.tgz nothing happens at all. I ungzipped the file using Stuffit, which worked just fine, then I did [oscar:~] irray% tar -xvf Python-2.1.3.tar which worked just fine. Then of course I tried copying the resulting directory to /sw/src/python21-2.1.3-4/, but fink won't use that. Now the question is what's up here -- why won't tar unpack the archive? Ideas?
