Re: Latest Catalina updates break self-update and update-all

Hi Hanspeter,

Here's the output. Another Fink user also sent me an email that he has the
same build of catalina 10.15.7 and has no problem, so I'm trying to find
out what else Apple changed.

[elhefe:~/Desktop] kinney% pwd

/Users/kinney/Desktop

[elhefe:~/Desktop] kinney% printenv SHELL

/bin/bash

[elhefe:~/Desktop] kinney%


Thanks,

Ed
