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 Password: Information about 7756 packages read in 4 seconds.

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.
