I'm trying to install tetex and tetex-texmf which require massive downloads (dialup).
Therefore I would like to use a separate download manager for the source packages. The Fink FAQ gives instructions on locating the packages on the Internet, and then moving the downloaded packages to / sw/src where they will be picked up on a fink install. However, I have been unable to determine the specific source file name (s) making up a fink (source) package. The FAQ seems to think that one already knows the file name. Google searches don't turn up exact matching filenames with version numbers. Also the files found by Google don't seem to match the size of the downloads that the fink install is attemtping. The two URLs in the Fink FAQ where supposedly these packages are stored do not work: http://distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net/ http://us.dl.sourceforge.net/fink/direct_download/source/ Do the fink "info" files apply only to the binaries? And the "deb" files apply to the source? Thanks Alan J.
