Check that the file exists, and that 'ls -l' of it reports -rw-r--r-- (that third "r" is the key). Then work backwards in its directory structure (/sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/devel /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo /sw/fink/dists/stable/main etc) and check that 'ls -ld' of it report dwxrr-xr-x (that last r-x is the key). Somewhere along this path is likely something that ends with --- instead. If it's the file itself, "chmod 644" it. If it's a directory leading to it, "chmod 755" it. I get this all the time when I have a restrictive umask, because then selfupdate sets all the files to be unaccessable by anyone except "me". dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
