Imho this should _always_ default to no.

could you explain why? I think one of fink's main problems is its dearth of binary packages and that new users can't figure out how to get those that exist. Defaulting to binary is the appropriate thing to do for unsophisticated users, IMHO. The sophisticated ones will figure out how to get source versions ...

The notion is to prevent _established_ users from unexpectedly changing how Fink operates by just picking the default answer.

oh, I see. I agree with that ... -- Sebastian Hagedorn PGP key ID: 0x4D105B45 http://www.spinfo.uni-koeln.de/~hgd/
