I've had the same problem on other packages when they go from just a
single package to a splitoff one--e.g. one that also makes a -shlibs
package, because the same file looks like it is part of two packages.

One option is to manually install gnome-libs-shlibs and forcibly
overwrite the file from the older gnome-libs:

sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-
 powerpc/gnome/gnome-libs-shlibs_1.4.1.7-3_darwin-powerpc.deb
