mv: rename /sw/src/root-xfree86-base-4.2.0.1-1/sw/../Applications to 
/sw/src/root-xfree86-rootless-4.2.0.1-1/sw/../Applications: No such 
file or directory

This *is* affected by linking /sw to another location, because of the leading
/sw in the path.

The version of the fink package manager in CVS has a modification that will
allow this problem to be fixed, but we are going to have to wait until
that version is released before it can be used in a package.  

There are three things you could do at this point:
 1) reinstall fink with the installation location specified as the actual
    directory you are installing, rather than linking /sw to that directory
    (Disadvantage: you will never be able to install anything in binary
     form)
 2) instead of linking /sw to another location, link all of the directories
    inside it to other locations, one by one.  This is what I do on my
    iBook whose disk is cramped for space.  I have a volume called Fink,
    and a whole bunch of links
       ln -s /Volumes/Fink/bin /sw
       ln -s /Volumes/Fink/include /sw
    The one thing that I *don't* link is /sw/src, because of the build 
    problems you are having.  (Disadvantage: you need enough space in your
    main partition to do all the building of packages)
 3) install the CVS fink by going to /sw/fink, issuing the commands
         cvs co fink
         cd fink
         ./inject.pl
    after this, you will need to modify your xfree86 package to take 
    advantage of the new feature -- Ben Reed can help you out with that.

 Good luck!
