Okay, I began troubleshooting with an approach I have seen described repeatedly here--

I mv'ed the offending "/sw/etc/apt/sources.list" to ~/sources.old and ran update-all again.
Now in the upper window of FinkCommander, apt and apt-dev are listed as 'archived' (but nothing installed) and apt-shlibs (0.5.4-7) is listed as 'current' and 'installed.' The compiling resumed with the next package in the que, which is fftw. Seems okay, but apt and apt-dev will have to finish installing eventually, right?

Anyway, the compiling is still going and seems fine. So I suppose when the rest of the packages finish compiling and installing I can just go back and 'fink update-all' again to catch apt and apt-dev so they install and become 'current' ,right?
Can/Should I then just delete the file /sw/etc/apt/sources.old? I guess when apt reinstalls it will make a new sources.list file?

Thanks!
