I've been trying to use fink to install gv, xdvi, and some other programs that want to install type1inst-0.6.1. Fink goes to ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/xutils/ to get the gzipped tar file. The problem (I think) is that sunsite.unc.edu changed and the ipaddress is no longer valid. It's now www.ibiblio.org. There's still a link to a sourceforge mirror, but fink isn't going there. Here's the message fink gives.
The following 3 additional packages will be installed: system-ghostscript system-tetex type1inst Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y curl -f -L -s -S -O ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/xutils/type1inst-0.6.1.tar.gz curl: (28) Connection aborted ### execution of curl failed, exit code 28 Downloading the file "type1inst-0.6.1.tar.gz" failed. I've tried nosing around the mirror site umn.dl.sourceforge.net/fink/direct_download/dists/fink-0.4.0/main/ source/x11 to download type1inst-0.6.1.tar.gz, but we "Others" don't have permission to read it. I'd think others have encountered the same problem. What's a simple work around?
