===New features in fink 0.27===<br />
<br />
* <code>fink --build-as-nobody</code> tries to build as user <code>fink-bld</code> instead of <code>nobody</code>, which is reserved by the OS.<br />
* Timeouts for sluggish/stalled downloads.<br />
* Validator detects deficient checking of some script return codes in <code>.info</code> files.<br />
* New in 0.27.2, add conditionals support to <code>Shlibs</code> and <code>ConfFiles</code> field (requires using <code>BuildDepends: fink (>= 0.27.2)</code> or higher).<br />
<br />
===Bug fixes in fink 0.27===<br />
* Saner handling of virtual (<code>Provides</code>) packages directly from the fink command-line.<br />
* Better recovery when encountering an unprocessable <code>.info</code> file.<br />
* More reliable building perl-module packages (<code>Type: perl</code> passed <code>-j1</code> in default <code>InstallScript</code>).<br />
* Improved detection of non-fink X11.<br />
* Safer management of communication between fink and apt-get.<br />
