I just installed the new apple x11 package, and am quite happy with it. The trouble is that when I try and install the new system-xfree86 package I get the following sad news:
sudo /sw/bin/fink install system-xfree86 Information about 2058 packages read in 3 seconds. pkg system-xfree86 version ### pkg system-xfree86 version 4.2-3 The following package will be installed or updated: system-xfree86 Odd number of elements in hash assignment at /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/PkgVersion.pm line 1730. Use of uninitialized value in list assignment at /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/PkgVersion.pm line 1730. rm -rf /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3 mkdir -p /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw mkdir -p /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/DEBIAN mkdir -p /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw/share/doc/system-xfree86 echo "system-xfree86 is a bundle package that doesn't install any files of its own." >/sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw/share/doc/system-xfree86/README rm -f /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw/info/dir /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw/info/dir.old /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw/share/info/dir /sw/src/root-system-xfree86-4.2-3/sw/share/info/dir.old Writing control file...

Is it a busted info file? I'm using the cvs version of fink: [chem-bchm-165:~] chixson% fink --version Package manager version: 0.11.1 Distribution version: 0.5.0a.cvs and I did a fink selfupdate-cvs just before my fink install system-xfree86.
