Being a paranoid, and interested hacker - one feature I'd love to see, 
and have hacked up a not great implementation of in FinkCommander, 
would be an easy way to load the diffs of the .info/.patch files when 
an update was available.  It's somewhat difficult to tell why some 
package's revision number has been incremented without figuring out the 
cvs path, and looking it over in ViewCVS; it would be great if this 
information was available via simple switch to 'fink list` or `fink 
dumpinfo' .

I'd use it to feel more comfortable updating packages without wondering 
what I was doing (in root) to my system.

I'm sure I'm not the only paranoid out there. ;-)

I can send along the patch I made to FinkCommander if that would be 
helpful.
