The 2.9.13 description you are using isn't officially in the

distribution, so it's entirely possible that its checksum is
not 
up-to-date.  An easy workaround is to use "fink fetch
octave", then pick 
the "do nothing" option when it tells you the
checksum doesn't match.  
Then "fink install octave" will give you the
option to use the source 
that you have already fetched, which it doesn't do in the
combined 
fetch-and-install operation.

I've cced the maintainer, since it's probably worth updating
our octave 
to 2.9.13--I have a .info file for it (but my Fink box is
offline so I 
can't actually post it).

Alex,

Thanks for your help.

Now when I run fink selfupdate I get the following errors:

.
.
.
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
configure: configuring in lib
configure: running /bin/sh './configure' --prefix=/sw 
'--prefix=/sw'  
--cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=.
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error:  
C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for lib
### execution of /var/tmp/tmp.1.nHnRG8 failed, exit code 1
Removing runtime build-lock...
Removing build-lock package...
/sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait -r fink-buildlock-libiconv-1.11-11
(Reading database ... 6144 files and directories currently
installed.)
Removing fink-buildlock-libiconv-1.11-11 ...
Failed: phase compiling: libiconv-1.11-11 failed


Is it possible that I am using the wrong shell (tried both
bash and  
csch)?

I do also have xcode installed off of the apple website if
that makes  
any difference.

Thanks for your help,

Robert
