When I ask for a
sudo fink install gimp
I get the following result:
curl -f -L -O

curl: (9) Couldn't change to directory pub/gimp/gimp/v1.2/v1.2.3
### execution of curl failed, exit code 9
Downloading the file "gimp-1.2.3.tar.bz2" failed.
No matter what I do it doesn't work, for the very simple reason that
the
file gimp-1.2.3.tar.bz2 is in
/pub/gimp/v1.2/v1.2.3/
and not in
/pub/gimp/gimp/v1.2/v1.2.3/
How do I correct this? If I can't do it myself, whom should I ask to
do it?
To fix your own problem, download the file manually from wherever you
find it (google often helps in such situations..), and put it in
/sw/src.
Then 'fink install gimp'
To get it corrected in the distribution, inform the maintainer of the
package
(`fink info gimp`) of the problem (this msg is cc'd to him).
Best,
Jean-Francois Mertens
