Hi,
I’m running OS X 10.2.8. After installing Fink with the 0.6.2 Binary Installer, I tried running “fink scanpackages”.
I get the error /sw/fink/dists/: No such file or directory
As you can see from the directory listing (see excerpt from terminal below) dists is a link to /sw/fink/10.1, which doesn’t exist.
What did I do wrong, and how can I correct it?
Thanks, Richard
