Oops. I had forgotten that "install phase" meant the phase where files were getting copied around.
In this case, the actual error is somewhere earlier in the build. The result of it is that some files didn't get generated, but the build continued on until the install phase where fink complains about them not being around. You'll need to check earlier in the build for errors. If you need to do the build again "fink -l build caca" will grab a log in /tmp for you.
