Yeah, it’s a little convoluted. :-) For configurations where a binary distribution is available (distribution has one, and user is using /sw), we set UseBinaryDist: true in fink.conf as part of the default setup. So the manpage is correct in general, but most people have the override set. You might just need to use “fink configure” on your system and elect to use the binary distribution by default when that item comes up. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list Fink-users@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.macosx.fink.user Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
