Thanks for letting us know, and testing/fixing! Debian has upgraded
their package and apparently doesn't keep their old deb-specific
patchfiles available. And their now-current one does not differ in any
relevant way from the old one either (it cherry-picks upstream patches
against their older version whereas we use a newer upstream version
that is already patched). I committed the update to the new deb
patchfile just to keep downloading easy.
You might want to check your fink's MasterMirrors setting ('fink
config') or experiment with other mirrors when fink cannot download the
needed source file. The master mirror pool (run by fink) does maintain
*forever* copies of other hosts' sources that fink uses, so you can
still get it even when, for example, debian itself no longer carries
it.
