Thanks, Alexander. I tried again today, but get exactly the same =20
error. Then I tried to install another module, a completely different =20=

one, and it errored out with:

which is starting to get annoying. :(

I did that, Jim, and brought up another person with exactly the same =20
problem, plus the fink archive browser:

http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/bindist/dists/fink-0.8.1/main/binary-=20
darwin-i386/text/

which won't load ... it times out.

So I don't know what to do. :(

I've joined fink-beginners. It doesn't look like my problems are =20
going away, and they're not FC's.

Thankyou for your help, both of you. :)
