Thus far my problem seems to be solved, apt-get install patch fixed it. Great ! It works also for me ! Thanks a lot ! Just one point: apt-get install patch places a new patch in /sw/bin. Think to remove the one in /usr/bin. Vincent. --

I agree we could use a binary unstable distribution like Debian. Any chance we could merge back with Debian and leverage their auto-build and mirror mechanisms? They have a few fledgling efforts on their web page for other kernels (GNU Hurd, FreeBSD, NetBSD). It would eliminate the periodic

I've been down this same road with fink failing when it does a patch. I traced it down for the packages it died on to a file it was trying to patch but the file no longer existed. I'm not sure if this is your problem or not but the result was the same. I had to reboot the entire system every

Max, You are right. I stand corrected. Nevertheless, I'm suggesting that we should consider pre-building unstable binaries to broaden the base of unstable testers. If bandwidth to dl.sourceforge.net is an issue, then we might consider utilizing the Debian mirror structure. Another
