Not sure.  It looks fine in my message in my "sent items' and also in the
message I received back from the list.

Per Alexander's recommendation I did a "fink remove packagename" on all
those listed with a "C" in the first column.  What's strange is that only
"ddd" was actually removed.  All of the other packages gave the following
error:

dpkg --remove  blackbox-rootless
dpkg - warning: ignoring request to remove blackbox-rootless which isn't
installed.
It's like they weren't installed.  Which they shouldn't be because many I
didn't recognize and many I didn't even download (even as dependencies).
These included: ddd, ghx, hx, links-ssl, ee, f2c, gnut, rsync, hdf, hdf5,
netcdf, netcdf-absoft, rasmol, scigraphica, ispell, tex2im, xless, keychain,
kinput, links, basiliskii, eterm, blackbox, and blackbox-rootless.

Sounds like I'm really hosed.  Is my only option to trash fink (ie /sw) and
start from scatch?  I hope I don't have to reload all of those packages.  If
I do, how can I prevent this from getting messed up again.  I'm not one that
mucks around with the files except for using dselect and fink.

Thanks.
