Having problems with Panther, Fink, X11. Help appreciated.

X11 works fine - the xterm opens.
I have installed X11 SDK package

When I run apt-get install I get a message to try apt-get -f install.

The output from that command is below as is the output from the command fink-virtual -pkg

I am hoping to use X11 from Panther and not one of the other xfree distros. When I try a fink install I get a choice of putting in one of three other x windows managers, or I think that is what it is asking, also at the end.



thanks
jeff

sudo apt-get -f install

fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The
candidates:


(1) xfree86-base-threaded: XFree86 libraries, utilities, clients and data
(2) xfree86-base: XFree86 libraries, utilities, clients and data
(3) xfree86: XFree86 distribution


Pick one: [1] ^C
