OK, I edited fink.conf and pretended I'm in nam-US. This
doesn't seem to help much -- I still get the concatenation
error and I still get stuck at the funny root prompt.  If I
type exit here then it does do slightly more than I posted
before (I didn't find out I couldn't ^C out of it until
after I sent the previous post), see below.  Note that I
normally use FinkCommander, in which you don't see the root
prompt, it just appears to hang, whereupon one wouldn't know
to try "interact with fink" and enter "exit"...

I will now run the rsync command to retrieve the latest
package descriptions.

As before, 10.2.8 on 12" TiBook with everything up to date
as of a couple of days ago.  I guess you might also want to
know this:

fink --version
Package manager version: 0.17.1
Distribution version: 0.6.2.cvs
