Max,

I am having trouble updating to fink 0.3.2a.  If I use "fink selfupdate", it
hangs when trying to unpack packages-0.3.2a.tar.gz - here's a dump ...

gcondon:/Users/gcondon> fink selfupdate
sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate

The selfupdate function can track point releases or it can set up your Fink
installation to update package descriptions from CVS. Updating from CVS has
the advantage that it is more up to date than the last point release. On the
other hand, the point release may be more mature or have less bugs.
Nevertheless, CVS is recommended. Do you want to set up direct CVS updating?
[y/N] 

Okay, the selfupdate command will stick to point releases from now on. If
you
ever rethink your decision, run 'fink selfupdate-cvs' to be asked again.

curl -L -O http://fink.sourceforge.net/LATEST-FINK
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed          Time
Curr.

I will now download the package descriptions for Fink 0.3.2a and update the
core packages. After that, you should update the other packages using
commands like 'fink update-all'.

curl -L -O http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/fink/packages-0.3.2a.tar.gz
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed          Time

tar -xzvf -

Eventually, I just have to ctrl-c to get out.  I tried to update everything
through dselect but "fink --version" tells me I'm still at 0.3.1.  Finally,
I've tried to download the binary installer from
http://fink.sourceforge.net/download/index.php but it always hangs a few MB
in.

Any suggestions?  Should I just wait until tomorrow until the demand for the
binary installer has decreased?  I would like to get the "fink selfupdate"
problem resolved if possible.
