Whereas the swapping code now manages to swap several BuildConflicts in and out during one run, there seem to be narrow limits to its capacity.

BuildConflicts is known to be mostly broken, there's a bug on the tracker. It also hasn't been improved lately, the BuildDepends swapping which was added in Fink 0.24.9 is a different issue.

dpkg: regarding .../fink-buildlock- python24-2.4.1-101_2005.09.11-14.02.25_darwin-powerpc.deb containing fink-buildlock-python24-2.4.1-101: fink-buildlock- python24-2.4.1-101 conflicts with libquicktime0 libquicktime0 (version 0.9.4-11) is installed.

You can almost certainly get around this for now by manually removing libquicktime0, then building python24. After that the original command should work, or at least get farther.

Failed: Fink::SysState: Could not resolve inconsistent dependencies
### execution of /sw/bin/fink failed, exit code 1

Ok, the error message for this should probably be more verbose by default. Try installing the new fink in verbose mode: 'fink -v update fink'. That should make it say what's inconsistent about your system's dependency state.

Also, see if running 'apt-get check' finds any problems.
