I knew there was a day or so delay there--I tend to grab packages as soon as I can get the .info file from rsync, and so I wind up downloading from the "original URL" or "Custom Mirror" every time I update.

It then takes another day for the file to propagate to the "distfiles"
servers. (It is not even entered into those servers until the .info file
has been released.)


So, for the first day after release, it is normal to have to select
"use original URL" when installing a new fink version.
