Hello!

I installed fink as i want to install PostgreSQL following apple's guide (http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/postgres.html)

My problem is, when i want to install "readline", i get the error "no package found for specification 'readline'!" (as you can see below).

[DorianMac:~] dorian% sudo fink install readline
Password:
Information about 37 packages read in 1 seconds.
Failed: no package found for specification 'readline'!


[DorianMac:~] dorian% sudo apt-get -f install readline Password: Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done E: Couldn't find package readline


Does anyone knows why i get this error and why there are only 37 packages shown (on fink website there are listed 3450 packages). Should i update the package list somehow?
I went trough fink documentation as well trough the beginner mailing list archive, but i couldn't find anything helpful.


I am kind of newbie in unix, and i never used fink before.

Please help!

TIA
Dorian
