You need to update all your package descriptions then: XFree86 4.2.1.x
isn't supported by Panther and shouldn't be listed as an available
package.

Sorry.
I'm running n Macos 10.3.4 with fink (Package manager version: 0.20.6
Distribution version: 0.7.0.cvs) and fink commander (0.5.3). I tried to
install "evolution" but fink was unable to install it on my computer
because
of problems with Xfree86. Thus I read the FAQ where I found a note on
this
problem (Q7.2) where it is said to desinstall current version of
Xfree86 and
Apple X11. That I do before trying to reinstall Xfree86 4.2.1.
And then I'm stuck

Hi
I try to reinstall Xfree86 with fink commander but I receive this
answer:
The following package will be reinstalled:
xfree86-base
Failed: can't find package xfree86-base_4.2.1.1-3_darwin-powerpc.deb
I think here are some important informations are missing:
Which version of fink are you running or you are trying to install?
Which version of Mac OS X are you running? Panther? Jaguar?
Which X-Server is installed? Apple's X11 or a fink version of
XDarwin and if so which or did you get the XDarwin binaries from
somewhere else?
What you can also try is to see if the points 9.11 to 9.13 out of
the faq <http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/index.php?phpLang=en> help
you out. They are for panther and X11 but it should be similiar to
your situation where a x is in the way.

Eric Hoch
