thanks Alexander,
I'll consider brutality. I'm trying to update bundle-gnome and get variations of:
trying to overwrite `/sw/include/libgsf-1/gsf/gsf-doc-meta-data.h', which is also in package libgsf
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)

### execution of dpkg failed, exit code 1
Failed: can't batch-install packages: /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/gnome/libgsf-dev_1.9.1-1_darwin-powerpc.deb /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/gnome/libgsf_1.9.1-1_darwin-powerpc.deb /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/gnome/libgsf-shlibs_1.9.1-1_darwin-powerpc.deb

I checked "fink list libgsf" and it is shown as installed. Do I need to force overwrite each file that has this issue? I'm trying to install packages one at a time to isolate the problem ones.

I've removed, installed, rebuilt, fetched and installed and keep getting the same problem.
Any help?
Thanks


You need to be more brutal:

Warning--this may cause strange effects if the two files aren't identical or close to it.
