If you have only one URL for the source, it doesn't make sense to use the CustomMirror field (there is no *mirror*, after all, just the original source URL). If you do, it gives the exact same behavior as if you don't.


Ah, yes, that's exactly what I need: a way to specify an original source URL. That's the solution I'm looking for, since it would prevent Fink from going to its mirror, I assume. But I couldn't find anything about this in the packaging manual or the tutorial. (I assumed that custom mirrors *are* the way to specify an original source URL.) Can you please tell me how to specify an original source URL in the .info file? Thanks,

As others have explained, what fink does for downloading depends on two things: On what is written in the *.info file and on what is written in the user's own /sw/etc/fink.conf file. The latter determines if the URL given in the *.info file is used first or last. The normal way for your *.info file would be to have just a Source line and no CustomMirror:
