Thanks for the various advice guys. The 0.5.0 distribution is just the ticket.

I've enjoyed using fink for some time and I have become a

fink under Jaguar now.  Following the bootsrap instructions
works up to the step where  selfupdate-cvs is required. The
problem is that we can't CVS through  the firewall -- we
need to use the proxy form of CVS. Unfortunately,  the
appropriate version of CVS is not part of the base
distribution.  Should we somehow build a working
proxy-capable CVS? Would  selfupdate-cvs work then? It might
be easier to use the so called  "packages-0.11.0.tar.gz"
alternative, but where can I get this? Or  should I take
another approach entirely? Will waiting for the release
help? Remember, the idea is to make it seem easy to install
so that  fink use can spread around here. Advice?

You dont need to selfupdate-cvs anymore, the fink 0.5.0
distribution tarball has been released. (though not yet the
.pkg installer, or the binary distribution)

See:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/

the "distribution" archive contains Fink 0.5.0 with the 10.2
set of packages.
