You may well not have /sw/fink/dists/local/main on your system--you're free to create this directory if you want.

hi there,
I am with fink --version Package manager version: 0.17.4 Distribution version: 0.6.2.cvs
on Panther 10.3.2 . I do have only stable tree . By hazard I discovered the following from apt-get. I do not have local/main and there is no trace of it, not even in fink.conf.
Same happens on a colleague's fresh fink installation. What gives? (fink apparently works anyway though)
Cheers
Massimo
