This what I get running apt-get:

sudo apt-get install system-xfree86=4.2-3
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  system-xfree86 
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0  not upgraded.
4 packages not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B/2278B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.

I tried downloading the file myself and then moving it to the
stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/x11-system directory, but then I get this:

sudo apt-get install system-xfree86=4.2-3

--fix-missing doesn't work with apt-get or fink so I'm off to the web site
to figure out how to use --fix-missing
