I wanted to rebuild kaddessbook3.4.0 but get a "can't find package 
description" error. I have the .tar.gz file for kdepim3.4.0 in /sw/src. Can I 
extract the file and rebuild from it? How do I get fink to rebuild from the 
directory location /sw/src/kdepim3-3.4.0? I get this from "fink rebuild 
kdepim3-3.4.0":

"The following package will be rebuilt:
