Here's a couple of ideas:

1)  Look for popt-1.6.2.tar.gz somewhere else, like one of rpm.org's mirror
sites.  Download it manually from a site that works, and copy/move it to
/sw/src .  Then do 'fink update-all' again.

2)  This takes more effort.  You can update (or install) multiple packages
at once, e.g. 'fink update bash emacs'.

For an easy way to see which packages need updating, do

fink list | grep "(i)"

(the quotes are important).  This returns the installed packages for which a
newer version exists.
