Cool, I gave that a try and after about 8GB of copying I seem to have a full
complement of .debs in 10.9-libcxx, to judge by the sizes of the dirs.
ls 10.9/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/libs/*ev
72
/sw/fink/10.9/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/libs/libev4-shlibs_4.15-1_darwin-x86_64.deb
72
/sw/fink/10.9/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/libs/libev4-shlibs_4.19-1_darwin-x86_64.deb
208
/sw/fink/10.9/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/libs/libev4_4.15-1_darwin-x86_64.deb
216
/sw/fink/10.9/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/libs/libev4_4.19-1_darwin-x86_64.deb
looks much more promising. And update-all is now proceeding.
I notice it has copied over my “local” .debs, but not the corresponding
finkinfo files. That’s easy to fix of course.
Many thanks for the fix, much appreciated.
