Yes, I have the unstable tree in /sw/fink/dists/. I have some apps from unstable installed as described in the FAQ. I would like to either display the unstable versions in Fink Commander or use "fink list --tree=unstable" to see what the latest versions in unstable are. Unfortunately, Fink Commander doesn't display these versions and neither does the above command. If I add unstable/main and unstable/crypto to the Trees line in fink.conf this will force me to use all unstable, correct? I don't want to do this at this time.

Hi Erik,
This looks like it will set my system up to use all unstable packages. I don't want to use all unstable packages, only a few. But I'd like to know what the unstable versions are at any given moment without having to go to the Package page on the Fink web site.
I have tried:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: fink list --tree=unstable
Information about 1301 packages read in 5 seconds.

The selfupdate-rsync method lets you have only the trees that you have activated in the fink.conf file. The selfupdate-cvs method gives you all trees, at least this was true last time I looked.
The unstable tree, if you have it, would be at /sw/fink/dists/unstable. You can look if it is there.
