Sylvain, the problem (as a few people have pointed out) is that you cannot include the Conflicts lines in readline and readline-shlibs. You need the Replaces lines, but not the conflicts lines.
(The reason is: if the current readline "conflicts" with an earlier version of readline, upgrading won't be possible without de-installing everything. There are similar problems if readline-shlibs "conflicts", since it also is required for the new version of readline.) Since fink is willing to replace the old version of readline by a new version of readline, you don't actually need the "Replaces" line in readline, only in readline-shlibs. I apologize, because this might be my fault: the first version of the email I sent about shlibs suggested doing this. But I later corrected things (after running into this same problem myself, with another package). To test this, I made modified copies on my system of the brand-new readline and readline-shlibs, with the Conflicts lines. Before I did this, they wouldn't install; after I did this, they installed fine. This problem was *not* caused by the 4.2/4.0 business.
