Hi, Alexander:
          Thank you for your reply.  I tried the new command you listed and
also tried open a new terminal window, but either of them work and I got the
same results for failed fink update.  Is there anything wrong with what I
did?  The detailed information is as below.  Pls advise.  Millions of
thanks!

pc202:~ Name$ source /sw/bin/init.sh
pc202:~ Name$ fink selfupdate

I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions.
The
'su' command will be used to run the cvs command as the user 'brucefouke'.
After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then
update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'.

/usr/bin/su brucefouke -c 'cvs -q -z3 update -d -P -l'
? TIMESTAMP
/usr/bin/su brucefouke -c 'cvs -q -z3 update -d -P 10.4'
