Am I the only one having a really hard time updating the fink packages with cvs?
I'm using fink's cvs instead of apple's broken one, and for the past two days I've been getting an error when I try to run the update. It returns with errors like update aborted: connect to cvs.sourceforge.net (566.35.250.207):2401 failed: connection refused or the text in the attached file (I suspect the cause is the same, just a different error). Is there a problem with sourceforge's cvs servers, or is something corrupted in my installation? I know the FAQ says that the connection error can happen if the server is just loaded, but I've been trying several times over two days...it's never given me errors this long... -Bart -- ********************************************************************** Microsoft: What trolls think lives under their beds... 2:05pm up 66 days, 21:16, 1 user, load average: 0.10, 0.20, 0.15 I heard Microsoft improved the time it takes to reboot Windows XP.

I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions. After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'. cvs -z3 update -d -P cvs [update aborted]: unrecognized auth response from cvs.sourceforge.net: M PserverBackend::PserverBackend() Connect (Connection refused) ### execution of cvs failed, exit code 1 Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above.
