I am not very experienced in such things, but I decided to try and update my fink installation.
Before I started, "fink -V" said:
Package manager version: 0.13.6 Distribution version: 0.5.3.cvs
My OS is Jaguar v.10.2.8.
I ran "fink selfupdate". It ran through the process, then got to the stage:
Information about 1328 packages read in 7 seconds.
The following 3 packages will be installed or updated:
apt apt-shlibs dpkg
rm -rf dpkg-1.10.9-50
mkdir -p /sw/src/dpkg-1.10.9-50
gzip -dc /sw/src/dpkg-1.10.9.tar.gz | /sw/bin/tar -xf -
sh: /sw/bin/gzip: No such file or directory
Failed: directory /sw/src/dpkg-1.10.9-50/dpkg-1.10.9 doesn't exist, check the package description
I get the same message if I try "sudo fink update apt" and so on.
fink -V now says:
Package manager version: 0.16.2 Distribution version: 0.6.2.cvs
What is it objecting to? What can I do to fix it (or back out whatever I have already done)? I've looked at the archives but can't find anything to help.
Thanks for any help, Tricia
