You're not going to be able to remove fink while dpkg is broken, so you can just clobber your whole /sw2. You probably don't need to send the whole boostrap output, no. Just go with the dpkg-bootstrap build output. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7.
