I noticed that message, but tetex-base installed fine for me on April 29 this year when I had to build a new fink on a new machine. Two dependencies that have changed since then are fontconfig2-dev and freetype219. For the moment I'm discounting 10.5.7 and xquartz as the trigger, since the error appears on 10.4.11 too.
