Hi all,
after some months I cannot update Fink. I get these errors:
Fink has the capability to run the CVS commands as a normal user. That has some
advantages - it uses that user's CVS settings files and allows the package
descriptions to be edited and updated without becoming root. Please specify the
user login name that should be used: [salvo]
Odd number of elements in hash assignment at /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/CLI.pm line 197, <STDIN> line 1.
For Fink developers only: Enter your SourceForge login name to set up full CVS
access. Other users, just press return to set up anonymous read-only access. []
Did you do anything other than hit return here? Otherwisse, for some reason it appears to be passing your user login to the Sourceforge login prompt as well?
Checking to see if we can use hard links to merge the existing tree. Please ignore
errors on the next few lines.
Now downloading package descriptions...
/usr/bin/su salvo -c 'cvs -z3 -d:ext:@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/fink checkout -d fink dists'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:

### execution of /usr/bin/su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Downloading package descriptions from CVS failed.
What password? Fink first of today has never requested me any password...
If I try fink install fink-mirrors the system try to install mirros, but then I get these errors:
Removing build lock...
dpkg -r fink-buildlock-fink-mirrors-0.23.5.2-1
(Lettura del database ... 254376 file e directory attualmente installati.)
Rimozione di fink-buildlock-fink-mirrors-0.23.5.2-1 ...
Failed: directory y/fink-mirrors-0.23.5.2-1/fink-mirrors-0.23.5.2 doesn't exist, check the package description
please, help me!
thanks in advance
Salvo
One other question would be why aren't you using rsync?
