Hi, Peter-- Sorry, while I was waiting, I tried to at least see the Teknap package and follow the rest of the instructions.

I ran the selfupdate, but teknap did not appear in my list. I checked all the directories, not just unstable. I then edited my fink.conf, just in case I had simply missed it. This was my output: # Fink configuration, initially created by bootstrap.pl Basepath: /sw RootMethod: sudo Trees: local/main unstable/main unstable/crypto local/bootstrap Mirror-ctan: ftp://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/ Mirror-gimp: ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub Mirror-gnome: ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/ Mirror-gnu: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu MirrorContinent: nam MirrorCountry: nam-us ProxyPassiveFTP: true Verbose: false [ Read 12 lines ] [dsl-gte-20809:~/sw/etc] root# fink install teknap Reading package info...
