I cannot help these people.  Should someone take me off this list?

I put a new hard drive in my IMac. I'm running system 10.3.7. I did a
new install of Fink, XCode tools and Mac's X11. But when I tried to
install Gimp I got:

WARNING: if you compile X11 applications against this XFree86 release,
you will *not* be able to run them if you decide to revert to Apple's
X11 provided with Panther.

You have an existing X11 installation in /usr/X11R6 and/or /etc/X11.
This package refuses to overwrite these. Remove them, then tell Fink to
install xfree86 again. (The package won't be recompiled.) If you want
to keep your X11 installation, install system-xfree86 resp.
system-xtools
instead to make this known to Fink's package system.

Press Return to continue.

There is no info on how to uninstall X11 on the Apple web site and I
can't find system-xfree86 resp. system-xtools on my Fink installation.


Any ideas?
