In gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners, you said:
 Since selfupdate wasn't working on my 10.2-gcc3.3 computer at work
 (on which I only yesterday enabled the unstable trees -- and on which
 I had a working stable-tree kde installation yesterday), I tried to
 update-all. This didn't work because the first thing it tried to
 update was fink....

 Anyhow, how do I beat this one? (My guess is that it depends on
 something that is not installed, but, hey, I'm a beginner!)

Sounds like you're right on with the diagnosis though:)

Try installing "test-simple-pm560" (assuming '/usr/bin/perl -v'
reports itself as v5.6.0). Then see if you can update the "fink" pkg.

dan

bash-2.05b# /usr/bin/perl -v

This is perl, v5.6.0 built for darwin

bash-2.05b# fink list test-simple
Information about 3294 packages read in 3 seconds.
 i   test-simple-pm                       0.47-1
     test-simple-pm560                    0.47-14
     test-simple-pm561                    0.47-14
     test-simple-pm580                    0.47-14
     test-simple-pm581                    0.47-14
     test-simple-pm584                    0.47-14
     test-simple-pm585                    0.47-14

Installing test-simple-pm560 worked and selfupdate then worked.

Thanks,
Robert
