[localhost:~] [**myuserid**] % fink -V Package manager version: 0.20.1 Distribution version: 0.7.0.cvs
selfupdate-rsync isn't working for me. I get a host of errors like:
rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "10.3/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils": No such file or directory (2)
stat 10.3/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils : No such file or directory
... for pretty much every file in the 10.3 folder.
I tried multiple mirrors in "my country" (the US), and also selected option 4 just for kicks. Fink returned the following:
rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-12/rsync/main.c(1045)
### execution of /usr/bin/su failed, exit code 23
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/SelfUpdate.pm line 626.
Updating using rsync failed. Check the error messages above.
(1) Give up (2) Retry the same mirror (3) Retry another mirror from your country (4) Retry another mirror
How do you want to proceed? [3] 1 No mirrors worked! Bailing.
... so I tried CVS.
When I try cvs, I don't encounter any errors. Unfortunately, I also don't get any 10.3 packages. Just so you know what I mean:
[localhost:~] [**myuserid**]% cd /sw/fink/10.3/ [localhost:/sw/fink/10.3] [**myuserid**]% ls total 8 drwxr-xr-x 5 [**myuserid**] admin 170 12 May 21:01 . drwxr-xr-x 16 [**myuserid**] admin 544 12 May 21:01 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 [**myuserid**] admin 989 3 Jul 2003 IDEAS drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 12 May 18:01 stable drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 12 May 18:01 unstable [localhost:/sw/fink/10.3] [**myuserid**]% ls stable total 0 drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 12 May 18:01 . drwxr-xr-x 5 [**myuserid**] admin 170 12 May 21:01 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 68 12 May 18:01 crypto drwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 68 12 May 18:01 main [localhost:/sw/fink/10.3] [**myuserid**]% ls stable/crypto total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 68 12 May 18:01 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 12 May 18:01 ..

... which, as you may imagine, is somewhat frustrating.
I think I have everything configured correctly:

... but if you see something out of place, please point it out!
I have installed XCode, Apple's X11, can start fink-installed programs, can use X11, etc. I've searched the docs/FAQ/help/etc. I even searched the mailing list, which may have suffered from operator error, or sourceforge's search tool may just suck.
Hence, my plea: how do I get 10.3 files via fink?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer, even if it's just a suggestion to search for a particular term or something.
