When quoting sources.list entries, it's easier to tell what's actually
there if you put them on a line of their own--spaces matter and this
keeps mail programs from munching them.

Having "//" instead of "/" there is irrelevant--that would still work.

it's not an official Fink repository it's not under our control to do
anything about, and only Rob Braun can really help you at that end.
