You didn't specify your OS version or architecture, which are useful pieces of information when filing a report.
When you said you tried to update the list of packages by "fink configure" did you turn on the unstable tree? That's the only way to change which packages are available to you under that command. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Cygwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkgPhQ8ACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ+m+gCffW8+7GAO9JR5JmeJ0xyvXKuj EtAAn2qBck5ZCI4xsTnK00daWdOVXlOQ =y0iI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
