I noticed today that on two different, but otherwise running the same OS, systems I see
Scanning package description files.......... Information about 7404 packages read in 2 seconds. on one, and Scanning package description files.......... Information about 7408 packages read in 1 seconds. on the other. I went poking around and I find that I have some files in /sw/fink/10.8/local/injected/finkinfo/update-packages in particular: -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5717 Aug 17 2012 perl586-10.5.info -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1146 Aug 17 2012 rman-10.5.info -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 564 Aug 17 2012 rman-10.5.patch I don't think I have rman installed, fink list rman doesn't think so anyway and I don't know what perl586 is at all. Although there is a /sw/lib/fink/update-packages/perl586-10.5.info file. A diff shows minor changes between the two. And that's only two .info files, the difference is four as far as I can tell. Should I just remove the three files under local/...? Why are there 10.5 files hanging around? Both of these systems were fresh installs although several months apart ... Something to ponder on a warm Sunday afternoon ... Thanks!
