What specifically do you mean by "asking about packages to install"? I
can't see why either 'fink list' or 'fink dumpinfo' would try to
install or build anything, so would be interesting to debug that.

For the actual goal, I usually just grep -r my .info collection. Only
works if the X is fairly unique (or if similar strings can be excluded
easily), but that is often the case.
