I'm trying to follow the directions in the FAQ for resolving a selfupdate cvs issue, namely:
> If, you don't see either of the above messages, then this almost > always means you've modified a file in your /sw/fink/dists tree and > now the maintainer has changed it. Look further back in the > selfupdate-cvs output for lines that start with "C", like so: > > C 10.2/unstable/main/finkinfo/libs/db31-3.1.17-6.info > ... (other info and patch files) ... > ### execution of su failed, exit code 1 > Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above. > > The "C" means CVS had a conflict in trying to update the latest > version. The fix is to delete any files that show up as starting > with "C" in the output of selfupdate-cvs, and try again: > > sudo rm /sw/fink/10.2/unstable/main/finkinfo/libs/db31-3.1.17-6.info > fink selfupdate-cvs However, this is what happens when I try to follow the directions. The files with the C in front of them don't exist in my setup, so I can't get rid of them: > ? 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/x11-wm/afterstep.info > cvs update: move away 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/games/ > xscorch.patch; it is in the way > C 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/games/xscorch.patch > cvs update: move away 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/ > density.info; it is in the way > C 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/density.info > cvs update: move away 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/ > abook.patch; it is in the way > C 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/abook.patch > ### execution of cvs failed, exit code 1 > Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above. > James-Coyles-iMac:~ jamescoy$ sudo rm 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/ > games/xscorch.patch > rm: 10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/games/xscorch.patch: No such file > or directory > Where do I go from here?
