I checked the integrity of
/sw/fink/10.2/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/devel/m4_1.4-6_darwin- powerpc.deb
and it seemed okay (it showed a directory as you described).
I then ran this command:
dpkg -c /sw/fink/10.2/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/devel/m4_1.4-6_darwin- powerpc.deb | awk '{if ($6 == "./") { print "/."; } else if (substr($6, length($6), 1) == "/") {print substr($6, 2, length($6) - 2); } else { print substr($6, 2, length($6) - 1);}}' > /sw/var/lib/dpkg/info/packagename.list
Which seemed to be what you were saying should be done. However, it didn't do anything, or at least it didn't seem like it did anything - it just showed the command prompt. When I tried to do an update-all I ran into the same problem as before.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Philip Trauring
