Max: I sent an email to fink-devel last Thursday I think, proposing this solution. No one objected, and some responded positively (to me privately, not to the list) - so I took the deafening silence as tacit approval. If fact, the only suggestion I got was to send email to fink-announce when I added the packages. I guess I missed the GTK2 upgrade issue. Anyhow - since this is a new package at least people have to consciously make the decsion to install (as opposed to blindly upgrading via update-all). -Jeff -- Jeffrey S.
