Going to 2.4.0 (if I really did, as now i have and official Apple version after installation of Snow Leopard) was a step out of misery, as Apple X11 Leopard version was deprecated. I have explained in one of my recent letters what my real problem is - deactivated rsync/cvs in one of the sites where I am helping people to install Mac programs related to structural biology, despite the fact that the responsible for firewall is insisting that he himself using FINK. I guess it may be internet connection location dependent and I will continue investigate the situation. But it takes time which could be spent on something else. Well, never a dull moment.
