Hello,

Apologies again for the fink-specific email...

I did the "fink selfupdate-rsync" and then "fink update-all" for the  
heck of it.  Many hours later, the "fink install gnucash2" still  
fails, see transcript below.  I'm on OS X 10.4.11, and don't want to  
update to 10.5 just to get gnucash working.

Got it.  No need to be bleeding edge.

[gnocchi:~] gk% fink selfupdate-rsync

  Please note: the command 'fink selfupdate' should be used for routine
updating; you only need to use 'fink selfupdate-cvs' or 'fink  
selfupdate-rsync'
if you are changing your update method.

rsync -az -q  rsync://master.us.finkmirrors.net/finkinfo//TIMESTAMP /

I will now run the rsync command to retrieve the latest package  
descriptions.
