Thank you!!!  Yes, it did not look like that and stopped at 11.0.  Following your instructions, it now has the 11.3 line. BUT I get the same error.

My git installation is on the master for fink-distributions.
% git remote show origin
* remote origin
  Fetch URL: https://github.com/fink/fink-distributions.git
  Push  URL: https://github.com/fink/fink-distributions.git
  HEAD branch: master
Is this correct?  However, it says that my installation has a bunch of untracked files.
% git status
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
	10.9-libcxx/stable/main/finkinfo/base/fink-11.0.info
	10.9-libcxx/stable/main/finkinfo/base/libiconv-gettext.patch

	10.9-libcxx/stable/main/finkinfo/base/xz.info

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
This seems bad.  Git seems to confuse me a lot, is there a separate repository for those using fink on Big Sur?
