Martin,
Yes, I have UseBinaryDist: true in fink.conf.

I changed the line in question per your instructions below, and everything is copacetic.

Thanks! --robert

Or, if you feel more adventurous, you can also try to fix it yourself (no guarantee!):

Edit the line in question, for example by running

  sudo vi +360 /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/Package.pm

and change it from

    open APTDUMP, '-|', "$basepath/bin/apt-cache", "dump"
to
    open APTDUMP, '-|', "$basepath/bin/apt-cache dump"

I am CCing this to fink-devel so that it gets fixed soon.
(Explanation: perl-5.6.x doesn't seem to understand the open command with more than 3 arguments.)
