Could you explain what you find confusing? An example, perhaps? Usually you install the latest available version, and both "fink install" or FinkCommander do this by default. This latest version can be from stable or from unstable, but it doesn't matter where it's from. Or do you mean the distinction between installation "from source" and "binary" when you say "unstable" and "stable"? There is indeed not much control about whether you get a package from binary or not, and this could be improved. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
