The noted .patch file needs to be world-readable in order for the fink 
sandbox-build process to be able to access it. 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".
