Original post:
I hope to reach the right people with my upgrade troubles. Just
wanted to let you know, that your instructions didn't work as expected.
I just upgraded to 10.6, installed the XCode tools, and went on to
follow your 4-step instructions, namely:
add "NoAutoIndex: true" to /sw/etc/fink.conf
(fink index -f)
fink reinstall fink
fink update fink
fink install perl588-core
fink configure
Unfortunately, "fink reinstall fink" did not work:
construct:~ nicapicella$ fink reinstall fink

I then went on to modify /sw/etc/fink.conf in that I switched
"Distribution: 10.5" to "Distribution: 10.6" since I thought that
would do it. Unfortunately, it didn't. I'm no expert, but love to play
around so I decided to check out the mentioned "/sw/lib/perl5/Fink/
Services.pm line 1404". I simply removed the problem-making "or"-
statement, played around and got my update.
As soon as I have more time, I plan to switch to 64-bit Fink, so my
"hack" isn't so bad for the time being for now, it just needs to
work. ;-)
Regards and keep up the good work!
