Also, change varlink to link on the download URL (but not on the  
installation instructions URL). In summary,

<varlink url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/files/fink/0.29.8/fink-0.29.8.tar.gz/download 
">sourceforge.net</varlink>

should be replaced with

<link url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/files/fink/0.29.9/fink-0.29.9.tar.gz/download 
">sourceforge.net</link>
