I have a dreadfully slow network connection at work (where I'm
reinstalling fink from scratch), and it's just not able to grab
tetex-texmf without timing out.  So I downloaded it by hand at home and
brought it in, putting it in /sw/src/tetex-texmf-3.0.tar.gz .  But then
when I ran "fink install tetex", it now seems to want the binary
install.  I see that this is going into /sw/var/cache/apt/archives/partial
but I don't know how to download it manually.  This is what fink is
currently telling me:

  vanyel /Users/dblaheta -56-> fink install tetex

  Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

  Need to get 148MB of archives. After unpacking 364MB will be used.
  Get:1 http://bindist.finkmirrors.net 10.3/release/main tetex-texmf 3.0-1

What can I do to download it elsewhere and bring it in?  I'm running
OS X 10.3.9, and fink -v tells me it's version 0.24.10.
