http://sage.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/xtal/wiki/index.php/Installing_Coot_on_OS_X "Be sure to use the so-called "unstable" branch of fink to get the latest pre-releases of coot"
do i read this correctly : it means ONLY pre-releases, right? and then :
"`fink -y install coot` [...] whenever you require the latest version. "
means precisely that - the latest version, NOT a pre-release, so that the unstable branch does not need activation.
