Since the conflicting file is just a manpage, you should be free to follow
the instructions in  

http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/comp-general.php#also_in .

It still does need to be fixed.

Subject: [Fink-users] file-spec-pm fails install

Hi,

While trying to install file-spec-pm I get the following error:

dpkg -i  
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/libs/perlmods/file- 
spec-pm_0.82-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
Selecting previously deselected package file-spec-pm.
(Reading database ... 6329 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking file-spec-pm (from  
.../file-spec-pm_0.82-1_darwin-powerpc.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing  
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/libs/perlmods/file- 
spec-pm_0.82-1_darwin-powerpc.deb (--install):
  trying to overwrite `/sw/share/man/man3/File::Spec.3perl', which is  
also in package perl580
Errors were encountered while processing:
   
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/libs/perlmods/file- 
spec-pm_0.82-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
### execution of dpkg failed, exit code 1
Failed: can't install package file-spec-pm-0.82-1


file-spec-pm is needed by another package (test-harness-pm), but maybe  
it is already part of perl580? Would it be ok to remove the  
file-spec-pm from the depends line of test-harness-pm, or will that  
break other things?

Any ideas?


thanks,


- Koen.
