[Fink-beginners] Help pls?: Downloading the file "Samba-StartupItem.tar.gz" failed, becasue the file is html, not gz

[Jim G. <go...@ma...>]

Hi 

I am trying to install a package that (apparently) requires Samba. 

All is well during the fink install until fink tries to d/l the file "Samba-StartupItem.tar.gz", when it gives
me a checksum error. When I look at this file in less, I see that it is actually an html file, not a gz file,
and it looks like a fink d/l page on sourceforge.net.  Very weird. 

Any ideas on how to get through this? I do not know who supports this dependency chain.

Thanks,
Jim




FYI, Here is what I see:

Also,
local<130>~: file /sw/src/Samba-StartupItem.tar.gz 
/sw/src/Samba-StartupItem.tar.gz: ASCII HTML document text


I can see that the file is indeed html.
