When I try to use the Fink 0.6.2 installer I get the following message:

Fink 0.6.2 Installer cannot be installed on this computer.

A root directory /sw exists. Please see the Read Me file for update
instructions, or for information on installing Fink on a separate volume.

I am running OS X 10.3.2. When I look inside sw, there is a single
subdirectory called "lib". The contents of lib are as follows:

[pcp08119551pcs:/sw/lib] fred% ls -al
total 4872
drwxrwxr-x  7 root  staff     238  8 Feb  2003 .
drwxrwxr-x  3 root  staff     102  8 Feb  2003 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 root  staff  945416 14 Jan  2003 libcrypto.0.9.6.dylib
-rw-r--r--  1 root  staff  634480 14 Jan  2003 libcurl.2.0.2.dylib
-rw-r--r--  1 root  staff  634480 14 Jan  2003 libcurl.2.dylib
-rw-r--r--  1 root  staff   15124 14 Jan  2003 libdl.0.dylib
-rw-r--r--  1 root  staff  261776 14 Jan  2003 libssl.0.9.6.dylib
 
Do these files belong to version 10.3.2? The date associated with them seems
to predate this version of the OS. Can I get rid of these files with no and
then install 0.6.2? The only other think I can think to tell you about my
setup is that I have installed Apple's distribution of X11. I see the same
/sw/lib subdirectory on both my desktop machine (G4 mirror drive dual 1.25)
and my laptop (G4 12" powerbook).

I appreciate any ideas you can suggest.
