Howdy! A long time ago i configured fink to use the 'pangocairo testing' branch. I did a few updates, never had a problem. Somehow along the way i stopped receiving fink mailings and without the daily reminders i forgot to do updates for a while. This week i did a selfupdate and noticed that this branch is no longer being supported. However, even though i've done a selfupdate-rsync, i still seem to be stuck with the old fink:
