I have /sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/utils/coreutils-default_6.9-3_darwin-powerpc.deb and an older coreutils-default deb on my machine. I thought the problem was a dependency problem, but I could be wrong. I see that there is a build-conflict problem between coreutils-default and lynx, and I thought that my fink update-all after my removing coreutils-default involved updating lynx, but I could be wrong on this, too.
