Hm, it's possible, but really shouldn't happen. Anyway, this indicates that somehow something got screwed up, probably inside the dpkg database. I have seen this problem once or twice in the past in reports, but never on my own system, which makes it extremly hard to debug :-/ Anyway, please try the same for libjpeg, and tell us if it helps, and whether you now get another problem with another package. > >I have not done a "fink update-all" at any time.
