It seems that the error is related to a too large zsh history file. I 
already had some weird problems after the zsh history I've fixed as 
unlimited in terminal, went past a certain size. After clearing it, 
everything went fine. Sorry for the trouble.

Sure it has nothing to do with it for that part, since it is only 
viewed when running in normal mode and issueing a:
fink -v update-all

I'm using zsh (not the one from Fink, the one from Apple), Apple's X11 
and 10.3.8, if it can help to reproduce it with latest cvs.

Actually, bash vs. zsh is not relevent here.  The error Michèle is 
reporting is that the rebuild is trying to run fink.conf for some odd 
reason.  fink.conf is a config file, not a shell script.executed.

Maybe I need another flag in fink.conf or on the command line or the 
order in wrong, something like fink update-all -v, or maybe fink 
update-all does not support -v option?

Could the man page be changed accordingly, because that's very 
confusing.

2 - With maintainer mode and fink rebuild foo
Once the package is built and installed, running fink validate on the
deb leads to a file not found error, though the path is right and the
deb exists.
Is this normal? i.e.: should I first build with  maintainer mode to be
sure to get all warnings, then with normal mode to get a recognized
deb?
That sounds very bad. When you say "running fink validate on the deb",
do you mean the symlink in /sw/fink/debs or the actual file in
/sw/fink/dists/.binary..?
The actual file. It does not even occur to me to validate a symlink.

[Fink-devel] Questions about maintainer mode and non maintainer mode

[Michèle Garoche]

I noticed yesterday the following behaviour, new for me, when using 
fink rebuild foo or fink update-all with those settings in fink.conf:
Verbose: 3
SelfUpdateMethod: cvs
Mirror-apt: http://us.dl.sourceforge.net/fink/direct_download
UseBinaryDist: false
ConfFileCompatVersion: 1

Note: when running fink configure, at some point I'm asked for choosing 
a verbosity level from 1 to 4, but when choosing 4, 3 is activated.

1 - With normal mode and fink update-all
I have no more information of what happens when curl is working, e.g.

deb leads to a file not found error, though the path is right and the 
deb exists.

deb?
