[Fink-users] strange fink behaviour

[Kevin Horton]

I did a fink-selfupdate this morning, and there was a very large list 
of stuff to update, and the compiling went on for some time and 
eventually finished successfully.  I did another selfupdate this 
afternoon, and I could see many new .info file coming across.

After rsync was finished, I did a "fink list -o", but it found no 
packages that needed updating.  On a whim, I did a "fink index", and 
then repeated the "fink list -o".  Now there are 68 packages that 
need updating.  Why did was the output of "fink list -o" incorrect 
until I manually did a "fink index"?
