We had a report from someone on IRC about a similar problem--I don't recall whether a specific package was mentioned or not. In this case, the issue was resolved for them by _not_ invoking fink as root, and instead letting fink get its own root access. Are you invoking fink as root? If so, what method are you using to get root access? -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
