2005-06-07 Thread Daniel E. Macks
Fink was recently patched so that any "fink reinstall" of a package whose binary does not exist is automatically upgraded to a "fink rebuild" (a mode that always concludes by reinstalling). Without this, users have observed that fink will crash, since it can't install a non-existant .deb. I figure
