Hi, Thanks for the suggestion! Trouble is that there is no choice! I killed on one of my machine fink altogether and started roughly 20 times anew trying variants but simply no progress: fink does not work at all since it always crashes when it attempts to install apt. So no choice!
On the other machine I still have fink but I cannot install or upgrade the essential packages that I need also due to apt, libgettext3/8 and possible other packages. I tried very hand for several days. So without some bug repair there is no hope. In my last Emails I have documented in practice various crashes I have encountered. So I am blocked completely.
