hi,
I actually had looked at the FAQ prior to posting. This is what I see.
% fink selfupdate-cvs
sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate-cvs
Password:
I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions.
The 'su' command will be used to run the cvs command as the user 'aelony'.
After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then
update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'.
su aelony -c 'cvs -z3 update -d -P'
10.1/ CVS/ debs/ override
10.2/ ChangeLog dists@ stamp-cvs-live
10.2-gcc3.3/ README inject.pl* stamp-rel-0.3.0
10.3/ VERSION old/ stamp-rel-0.3.2a
cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
### execution of su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above.
There are *no* other above messages by the way..
If the case is that
"then it's likely that the cvs servers are overloaded and you have to try the update later."
...as the FAQ states... I will try that.
However I don't suspect that to be the problem.

Subject: [Fink-users] selfupdate-cvs fails
I am running 10.2.8 and have installed Apple's update for 10.2.8. I tried running fink selfupdate-cvs and it just hung taking up lots of memory in the process. After waiting some time, I killed it, and I ran fink install cvs, which ran to completion and seems to work fine.
I now tried fink selfupdate-cvs which still fails.
It claims the following...
"cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
### execution of su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above."
