This would probably be a consequence of sourceforge having changed their
download structure quite recently (I suppose so because I think the
prdownloads... addresses have all changed it seems.). So, a simple 'fink
selfupdate-cvs' should do the trick.

But if you have successfully downloaded the file by hand, you can just move
it to your /sw/src and proceed to installation -- fink will find the file
and use it.
