Indeed. Still using the 10.4 transitional tree. And in order to update, I have two option: 1) rm -R /sw/* and installing Fink from a disk image... 2) the script which gives me ibook-g4-de-guillaume:~/src/scripts-10.4-update-0.4 Yziquel$ ./update.pl Password: Can't locate Fink/Bootstrap.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /System/Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.8.6 /Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.8.6 /Library/Perl /Network/Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.8.6 /Network/Library/Perl /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.8.6 /Library/Perl/5.8.1 .) at ./update.pl line 36. which is sort of the same problem I had before. >> 1- How come fink is unable to see the perl distribution it installed? > > Combination of old fink and new sudo, as explained above.

Do you have any advice to give on whether to choose option 1) or option 2) ? Guillaume Yziquel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
