Some versions of fink smetimes do not detect the deletion of .info
files. You can force it with 'fink index'. Using 'fink cleanup' will
certainly be useless here...it only deals with obsolete compiled
packages, not .info files.

In most versions of fink, you can use 'fink dumpinfo' to see what fink
knows about a package. For example, 'fink dumpinfo -finfofile pdflib'
tells you what .info file is being used.
