Re: fink update

Dear Alex.

I tried to install new fink to the empty /sw directory and at the end of the process I get

-------------
Downloading the indexes of available packages in the binary distribution.
/sw/bin/apt-get-lockwait -q update
Err http://bindist.finkmirrors.net stable/main Packages
 404 Not Found
Ign http://bindist.finkmirrors.net stable/main Release
Failed to fetch http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/10.15/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/Packages 404 Not Found

E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
### execution of /sw/bin/apt-get-lockwait failed, exit code 100
WARNING: Failure while updating indexes.

ERROR: Bootstrap phase 2 failed!
----------
In the pages above there is nothing for 10.15

Fink looks like is installed. I’ve run ’selfupdate’. It ran correctly, installed 11 additional packages,  with exactly the same message at the end.

Then I tried to install a package - meld - and it failed with the end (and as I sent in attachment before)
