Eeek...I've just broken fink selfupdate somehow:

I will now run the rsync command to retrieve the latest package descriptions. /usr/bin/su vmk -c "rsync -rtz --delete-after --delete -q --include='10.4-transitional/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/main/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/main/finkinfo/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/main/finkinfo/*/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/main/finkinfo/*' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/main/finkinfo/**/*' --include='10.4-transitional/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/crypto/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/crypto/finkinfo/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/crypto/finkinfo/*/' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/crypto/finkinfo/*' --include='10.4-transitional/stable/crypto/finkinfo/**/*' --include='10.4-transitional/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/crypto/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/crypto/finkinfo/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/crypto/finkinfo/*/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/crypto/finkinfo/*' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/crypto/finkinfo/**/*' --include='10.4-transitional/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/main/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/main/finkinfo/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/main/finkinfo/*/' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/main/finkinfo/*' --include='10.4-transitional/unstable/main/finkinfo/**/*' --include='VERSION' --include='DISTRIBUTION' --include='README' --exclude='**' 'rsync://bru.be.eu.finkmirrors.net/finkinfo' '/sw/fink/'" rsync: mkstemp "/sw/fink/.VERSION.pUIWV0" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-20/rsync/main.c(1161)
### execution of /usr/bin/su failed, exit code 23
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/SelfUpdate.pm line 661. Updating using rsync failed. Check the error messages above.

Can someone tell me how to fix this? I have it working fine on the machine on the other side of my desk and I can't spot what's different between them (other than the working one is still progressing through installing a fresh fink after installing Tiger).
