I've determined that the very last version of the fink package manager which bootstraps successfully on 10.1 is fink-0.12.1.
Here's what I propose to do: 1) add fink-0.12.1-1.info to 10.1/unstable/main/finkinfo/base 2) make the fink 0.12.1 release visible on sourceforge, and label it "for OS X 10.1" like the fink-0.4.1a distribution is labeled 3) remove the contents of the 10.1 directory from the fink bootstrap area in CVS, and abandon any further attempts at 10.1 compatibility. Also, add a little code so that if you try to bootstrap or install a modern version of fink under 10.1 you get kicked with a pleasant message advising you to stick with 0.12.1 or earlier. Any comments about this? Objections, counterproposals? -- Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
