Your fink configuration file is still pointing at the 10.3 files and not 10.4. You can edit[1] the file /sw/etc/fink.conf and change the Distribution line to read: Distribution: 10.4-transitional Of course doing this and then running 'fink update-all' will probably update everything in your installation. To find out what will get updated, you can do 'fink list -i'. Any package with (i) will get updated. [1] You'll need to use 'sudo myfavoriteeditor /sw/etc/fink.conf' to edit the file. Of course replace myfavoriteeditor with an actual editor command. -- Jeff Shapiro listserv only address ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
