The problem with editing /sw/etc/apt/sources.list directly (except for the very top or bottom of the file) is that the next time you reinstall or update fink, the file will be rewritten. So I would say: edit the Distribution line in /sw/etc/fink.conf, adjust any local modifications you have made to the /sw/etc/apt/sources.list file, and then either reinstall fink or run the script /sw/lib/fink/postinstall.pl. After that, fink selfupdate (to bet new package descriptions), apt- get update, spt-get dist-upgrade, fink update-all are appropriate. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
