I'd appreciate any help sorting out why fink is confused about  
dependencies for xfoil-696-1001.  I only find one .info file for that  
version of xfoil, in the unstable tree, and it has the following  
depends lines:

Depends: gcc43-shlibs, x11-shlibs, x11
BuildDepends: gcc43, x11-dev

==========================================================
Yet, when I try to rebuild it, fink wants to install gcc4.2:

% fink rebuild xfoil-696-1001

         but cctools only allows things to BuildDepend on it.

What is going on here?  I assume that the bad info is coming from a  
cache somewhere, but "man fink" gives no clue on how to update it.   
The only mention of "cache" is WRT "fink index", but I've done that,  
and it doesn't help.

Thanks for your assistance.
