Unfortunately, the suggestion that apt-get gives you doesn't apply
here. On the other hand the messages are covered in the FAQ:

The link only brought me to the top of the page, so I'm not sure
which Q-A I was supposed to read. I scanned through the list and saw
two likely culprits (Q5.14 & Q5.24). The first wasn't helpful since
the selfupdate was what was complaining. Based on the second I did a
scanpackages for which I got this output:
16:12 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ (.337M)(77.7%)] $ fink scanpackages

Then I ran another selfupdate and received this response. Looks
better, but there was still an error in the middle when updating the
package index. Thoughts?

I will now run the rsync command to retrieve the latest package
descriptions.
