That doesn't agree with the User Manual. Specifically from:
<http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/users-guide/upgrade.php> "If you have Fink 0.2.5 or later, the first step can be accomplished by running fink selfupdate. That command will check with the Fink website to see if a new point release is available, and will automatically download and install the package descriptions in that case. In recent versions of the fink command, you get the option to pull package descriptions directly from CVS. CVS is a version-controlled repository where the package descriptions are stored and managed. Using CVS has the advantage that it is updated continuously." All I'm trying to do is update to a point release (0.3.2a). So I should be able to do that without using CVS. -Rich --- Original --- From: Justin Hallett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 3/18/02 2:21 PM -0700 Subject: Re: [Fink-users] upgrade from 0.3.1 to 0.3.2a? answering yes here is the only way. unless you do a manual cvs and inject it.
