So... where do things stand now? I still get
# fink update-all
Information about 8929 packages read in 1 seconds.
Can't resolve dependency "system-openssl-dev" for package
"root5-x11-cernlib-5.34.32-2" (no matching packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.
but root (and everything else I've checked) seems to still work. Shall I
just stop running update-all until the OpenSSL issues get resolved? I
could update individual packages by hand but this exit denies me a
list. :-(
