Virex 7.2.1 resolves Fink conflict
McAfee has released Virex 7.2.1, which no longer overwrites the main Fink directory /sw. Fink users should continue to avoid Virex 7.2.
Early reports indicate that upgrading Virex from 7.2 to 7.2.1 still leaves some problems however. If you upgrade Virex with Fink not installed, and subsequently wish to install Fink, you will need to delete the /sw directory by hand before installing. And if you upgrade Virex with Fink already installed, you should immediately run
fink reinstall openssl-shlibs dlcompat-shlibs curl-ssl-shlibs
to restore files which the Virex upgrade may have deleted.
Virex 7.2.1 is a free download for .Mac members, available from the Mac.com homepage.
For more information about Fink, visit the Fink Project Page.
