Okay, I finally got abiword to install. In short, the problem stems from the fact that the files indicate their version-revision is 1.0.3-2:
% pwd /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/editors % ls abiword* abiword-1.0.3-2.info abiword-1.0.3-2.patch but that the .info file had a Revision field value of "12". Simply editing that and changing the Revision to "2" didn't work. I had to also run "fink index" to rebuild the cached info. I now have abiword installed. Unfortunately: % egrep Revision abiword*info Revision: 2 montanaro:editors% fink selfupdate sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate I will now run the rsync command ... ... % egrep Revision abiword*info Revision: 12 so the info file needs to be corrected in CVS. -- Skip Montanaro Got gigs? http://www.musi-cal.com/ http://www.mojam.com/ Got spam? http://spambayes.sf.net/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
