Hi all, SourceForge.net has added some mirrors for prdownloads.sourceforge.net, and changed the way files are downloaded. At the moment this means that quite a few fink packages will fail to download. This is an issue which we know about and Max is working with the sourceforge team to resolve it, it may take a day or two, please be patient.
If you find yourself unable to wait to install a package which has a source URL at prdownloads.sourceforge.net, don't worry, you can download the source code yourself. All you have to do is cd into /sw/src and then issue the same curl command you saw in the failed download phase, changing prdownloads.sourceforge.net to unc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ You can then do fink install PACKAGE again and it should work. Thanks for your patience and understanding, Peter For example, if I want to install abiword: [localhost:~] peter% fink install abiword sudo /sw/bin/fink install abiword Information about 1019 packages read in 2 seconds. pkg abiword version ### pkg abiword version 1.0.1-1 The following package will be installed or updated: abiword curl -f -L -O http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/abiword/abiword-1.0.1.tar.gz % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Curr.
