I got a very weird response when I was trying to update some programs using
Fink. I am not able to do anything as it does not recognize my su password.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

su gamal -c 'cvs -z3 update -d -P'
cvs update: cannot find password
cvs [update aborted]: use "cvs login" to log in first
### execution of su failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above.

This usually means your ~/.cvspass got deleted somehow. If you do "sudo rm -rf /sw/fink/CVS" Fink should notice something's wrong and re-check everything out for you with the right stuff set up.


This question is really more suited to the Fink lists, though; you might want to try there next time first.
