Thanks, but even with selfupdate-rsync, I'm still getting File Not Found errors and "WARNING: Failure while updating indexes." Here's the exact sequence of steps I'm following: 1. Wipe out the previous Fink installation with "sudo rm -rf /sw" 2. Run Fink 0.9.0 Binary Installer for Intel (I'm on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.5.5) 3. Run "fink selfupdate" 4. Run "fink configure", leaving all options at the default except the one about unstable 5. Run "fink selfupdate-rsync" I've pasted below a log showing some of the errors I get in step 5. Am I still doing something wrong? Thanks, Trevor ~/Desktop$ fink selfupdate-rsync Please note: the command 'fink selfupdate' should be used for routine updating; you only need to use 'fink selfupdate-cvs' or 'fink selfupdate-rsync' if you are changing your update method. The current selfupdate method is point. Do you wish to change the default selfupdate method to rsync?
