If you get something like this when you try to update: *** malloc: vm_allocate(size=1342177280) failed with 3
install fink's cvs package, then try again. Apple broke it's cvs with the 10.2.8 update. I had no idea what the problem was, and the fink.sf.net site doesn't mention it anywhere yet.. I found the solution in the fink-users mail archive somewhere. kap On Wed, 8 Oct 2003, andy law (RI) wrote: > I hate to do this, but 'me too!' > > Later, > > Andy > > -----Original Message----- > From: Avram Aelony [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 08 October 2003 21:07 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Fink-users] selfupdate-cvs fails > > > > > > I am running 10.2.8 and have installed Apple's update for 10.2.8.
