I really, really don't like making apt/dpkg depend on fink being functional. This would prevent use of dpkg to recover from a broken fink install, which is VERY bad, as past history has well proven. The old method worked fine. I don't remember any discussion of this. (maybe i missed it)
At the very least, dpkg/apt should NOT exit(1) if fink-virtual-pkgs fails.
