There is an awful lot of stuff in the PATH variable that ends up *before* /sw/bin, for example the macports directories and some user directories with unknown contents. But how this could produce the result we have been seeing, I cannot imagine. But then I can still not imagine *anything* to produce the effect we have seen, namely an existing fink-0.28.5 package description apparently being ignored by the installed fink-0.27.16.I still would have liked to see whether running "fink list fink" while that ~/.cshrc was moved out of the way gives a different result.Also fink dumpinfo fink would perhaps reveal some useful informations. -- MartinAlthough: if the Trees: line in /sw/etc/fink.conf is misconfigured, then a selfupdate-cvs would download new package descriptions, but fink wouldn't see them.It would be worth looking at that, too.
So, as requested by Martin, I moved my .cshrc and put a new one containing only:
source /sw/bin/pathsetup.sh test -r /sw/bin/init.csh && source /sw/bin/init.csh The result of the comands fink index; fink list index is: ------------------ [apcmc147:~] blanc% /sw/bin/fink index Password: Scanning package description files..........

I cannot reproduced it after the moving exercice above.
The result of fink dumpinfo fink is below. The file /sw/etc/fink.conf
is attached.

It is responsible for downloading and compiling source and building binary packages from it. Binary package handling is then delegated to dpkg. descpackaging: Don't use mirror:sourceforge so that older package manager versions which do not know that mirror can still selfupdate. . Must put "make test" before "./setup.sh %p", because make test runs the setup script itself, but pointed at the testing directory. The second run of setup.sh properly points fink at the installed configuration file. . We are using Conflicts/Replaces against gcc3.1 so that the Fink gcc3.1 package is removed (in favor of an Apple-supplied gcc 3.1, represented by a virtual package). ---------------------
