Fucking fink.
I run fink selfupdate.
Firstly the git gives me CVS conflicts.
So I figure out where the troublesome files are, wade in with sudo rm,
retry and get past that hurdle.
Then this one
url -f -L -O http://distfiles.dkx.tn.us.finkmirrors.net/base-files-1.9.3.tar.gz
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Curr.
Dload Upload Total Current Left Speed
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:00:01 --:--:-- 0
curl: (22) The requested file was not found
### execution of curl failed, exit code 22
Downloading the file "base-files-1.9.3.tar.gz" failed.
(1) Give up
(2) Retry the same mirror
(3) Retry another mirror from your country
(4) Retry another mirror
(5) Retry using next mirror set "Custom Mirror"
How do you want to proceed? [3]
We go round this a few times, until I reach the conclusion that
base-files-1.9.3 is too fucking new, and none of the mirrors have caught
up. (Else it's not new, but all the mirrors I tried are stale, in which
case if they would be so kinds as curl up and die and thereby get out of
my fucking way)
So I eventually [1] (Give up) and just try to install postgresql74.
What do I get:
curl -f -L -O http://distfiles.sbn.in.us.finkmirrors.net/libpqxx-1.5.1.tar.gz
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Curr.
Dload Upload Total Current Left Speed
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:00:00 --:--:-- 0
curl: (22) The requested file was not found
### execution of curl failed, exit code 22
Downloading the file "libpqxx-1.5.1.tar.gz" failed.
(1) Give up
(2) Retry the same mirror
(3) Retry another mirror from your country
(4) Retry another mirror
(5) Retry using original source URL
How do you want to proceed? [3]
What's wrong with the fucking mirrors? Why don't I just blow OS X away
and install Debian instead? At least it has a functional packaging system.
