As Martin Costabel has explained in a previous message it appears that msn.wi.us.finkmirrors.net is not working at the moment. You've already been able to use sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net to rsync the package descriptions. The problem with those messages above is that Fink is still trying to use the former mirror to download some indices of *binary packages*. This is not dangerous; it only means that Fink can't check if binary packages are available in the official binary distribution. While we figure this out you may disable binary distributions altogether by running fink configure and answering N to the question Should Fink try to download pre- compiled packages from the binary distribution if available? [Y/n] The effect of disabling binary distributions is that Fink will always build packages from source even if they're available in a binary distribution. You can always re-enable that option later by running fink configure again. Cheers, -- monipol http://finkers.wordpress.com Submitting a Fink bug report?
