So the question is why Fink would want to install xfree86 given that you've got what looks like a completely adequate system-xfree86 suite.

Just as one last cleanliness check, try running

dpkg -l xfree86*

to make sure you don't have any partially installed bits (which "fink list" wouldn't register) laying around.

Here is what that produced:
