Ah. It's in the unstable tree only http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/mtr-nox You'd need to enable that, using "fink configure" followed by "fink selfupdate" (with rsync or cvs updating) if you're on a fink version that supports it, Or check out http://pdb.finkproject.org/faq/usage-fink.php#unstable > > So then my next question is can I uninstall everything that has to do > with X11, and just use non GUI packages.? > If so how would I go about doing this.? > With the proviso that not everything even has a non-gui analog, you can do that, but it will have to be done manually. Do a "fink list -i" to see what you have installed. Then you can use the "fink show-deps <packagename>" command on each to show whether they need x11 or not--if there is a dependency on x11 or x11-shlibs they do. -- Alexander K.
