Dear List-Members,1. Remove /sw
I have recently removed my old Fink installation. I then down loaded the Fink 0.5.0a Binary Installer and attempted to install the new version. This failed apparently because I have set-up a symbolic link to a second hard drive. Is this feature of the installer a bug or is it to protect people from installing over an older version?
Either way could some tell me how to perform an install to a symbolically linked /sw directory?
2. Install.
3. Move /sw to another drive ("ditto" is good to use)
4. Create /sw symlink to new location.
We will make this easier in the future.
