Alexander,

Thanks for the tip...but...that's not the problem, I'll try running postinstall.pl anyway and cross my fingers...

A couple of things to check, operationally, is whether /sw/fink/10.2 is
present on your system, and whether /sw/fink/dists is a symbolic link to
/sw/fink/10.2 . If not, then you might be able to solve the problem by
going into the directory where you decompressed the fink source tarball
to install/upgrade and running the perl script called
postinstall.pl.in which is that directory

Interesting, I have the same problem and running "fink selfupdate-cvs"
doesn't fix it. I discovered the problem when Jeff updated PerlMagick
and I tried to re-install--the update said no packages to install. So
of course since fink on my system didn't get the update, it is still
broken which I verified. Jeff confirms he updated the perlmagick-pm
package. So my fink 10.2.1 install didn't work properly

By chance are you running Perl 5.8--I am. I wonder if that is the root
of all evil here...

It would seem that I have (somehow) managed to brake my cvs access.

The first thing I noticed was that 'fink selfupdate' followed by 'fink
update-all' reports "No packages to install." even though a lot of the
packages I have installed are out of date (going by fink's packages
list)
'fink selfupdate' only updates you to the latest point release. If you
use 'fink selfupdate-cvs' you should get the versions of the packages
that are listed on the package list.

I have fink set to use the unstable branch, verified by trying
'fink install gtk+2' which installs version 2.0.5 (which is unstable,
but version 2.0.6 is listed on the package page). I went through the
Jaguar install process again, but it didn't seem to make a difference.

The next thing i noticed was trying to grab the latest fltk via
anonymous CVS. When I tried to login it would ask for a name
(anonymous) and a password (left it blank) then give me a login error,
using another computer (elsewhere via ssh) worked fine.

Any suggetions anyone?

James
