I've used it as a ritual "turn east and pray" action when I've gone in
and hacked my local .info and .patch files.  Is it no longer needed?

Hi Randal,

Usually fink should detect and update your index automagically. If for some reason it doesn't, the way to fix it is 'fink index'. As far as I can tell from the current code, 'fink rescan' will NOT fix this problem.
