One minor nit that I have with 'fink selfupdate' is that is
doesn't give sensible output if you have edited info files in
your fink directories. It would be nice if fink could recognize
the diff format that is produced in such cases and give the user
a sensible warning instead of just....
Scanning package description files....WARNING: Unresolved CVS conflicts in
"/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/ccp4.info".
WARNING: Repeated occurrence of field "depends" at line 61 of
"/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/ccp4.info".
WARNING: Repeated occurrence of field "builddepends" at line 62 of
"/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/ccp4.info".
WARNING: Repeated occurrence of field "buildconflicts" at line 63 of
"/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/ccp4.info".
It should clearly state these are unresolved merges in the info
file and request the user to solve them or delete the file and
pull it down again.
