It appears that this will only work if I move the unstable/main and 
unstable/crypto trees into my default (10.2) configuration.  If I do 
that, and try `fink update-all' it appears that fink wants to install 
xfree86-rootless' -- which I fear will trash my XDarwin installation.

I feel like I've gotten onto a descending spiral.  All I wanted was a 
working gimp, and I've done a series of upgrades to fink which now 
leaves the fink installation in a situation that threatens to unravel 
previous installations of important software packages.

If the stable 10.2 tree isn't ready yet --  which I can certainly 
understand, given the newness of 10.2 -- perhaps I should wait a while 
before trying to install and configure gimp.  This is a working 
machine, and I can't afford to see XDarwin  or other basic utilities 
trashed.

Thanks to all for the suggestions,
