This database lists all available Fink packages.
It knows about the "stable" tree of the latest release and
about all packages in CVS ("current-stable" and "current-unstable").
Note that some packages are only available in the "unstable" tree.
Read this:
The above means that a default install of Fink will not recognize some
packages listed here.
That is because those packages are in a section of the archive called
"unstable" because they are not well-tested.
You can help improve the situation by testing those packages and
reporting both success and failure to the package maintainer.
The Packages in Testing page lists all
packages that still have to pass testing.
In order to test the packages, you have to get the latest
descriptions from CVS and
configure Fink to use
unstable.
