Interesting -- so I did a clean install on 10.11 (I never even had a machine with 10.9 or 10.10, as I just skipped those OS X versions), and said yes to everything -- including bandits -- I was a bit surprised that there already was one for 10.11 and thought "wow, great work, folks". >> >> Because I had the bindist active before updating to 10.11 it seems fink just >> changed the line from 10.10 to 10.11.

Yes, there is such an entry.

Bingo, that's what happened. I actually never knew about that tool, but when I upgraded to 10.11 a short time ago, I thought to do it all properly and thus followed the instructions on our website. First thin I noticed was that http://www.finkproject.org/download/index.php does not yet list 10.11. But then on http://www.finkproject.org/download/srcdist.php it does list 10.11, and explicitly recommends that install tool. Which I dutifully used. So, I am pretty sure it will happen to other people... Can we get that fixed? Either by fixing that tool, or by not recommending it in the first place?
