If you want to switch to rsync you can just run "fink selfupdate-rsync". If you want to minimize your compile time, then you can grab as many precompiled binaries as possible by adding a couple of unofficial repositories, as per http://finkers.wordpress.com/2009/06/01/fink-and-binary-distributions/ Then try "fink install coot", "fink install ccp4", or if you're really feeling ambitious, "fink install coot ccp4". -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
