Try renaming /sw/fink/CVS to something else, and then do the selfupdate-cvs again to reset your options.

On the other hand, if the account it's using is one with administrative privileges, this is generally considered to be more desirable than running as root.

I'm not sure where i should send the question, but here goes:
when i do fink selfupdate-cvs it has decided to so "su pell -c 'cvs ...'" where i have NEVER had it do the cvs update as anything other than root. i'm confused. where is this setting? how do I reset it? help?
