What happens when you use a site other than GNU? (i.e., is this a parsing error with ...gnu... URLs or something where fink thinks *everything* is a GNU-mirrored thing?) What are your fink mirror settings (set by 'fink configure' and stored in /sw/etc/fink.conf)? Are you perhaps configured to use fink-mirrors before the main sites? > I am running from the unstable tree using the latest Fink 20.5 (I > believe) on Mac OS X 10.3 If the above does not help, we need exact and definite info about versions, your configuration, what URLs it is accessing, etc. dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
