"Archived" means the packages are built but not installed. The answers to a couple of questions may shed some light on what's going on:
1) What do you get if you run "fink-virtual-pkgs" in a terminal window? You should have one or more "system-xfree86" packages if your X11 installation is set up correctly. 2) What packages were you trying to install? And were you prompted to choose among a bunch of different X11-related packages? If you were, then you should always answer system-xfree86, even though it isn't listed as default. -- Alexander K.

Specifically, the message is as follows: Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: xfree86-shlibs: Conflicts: xfree86-base-threaded-shlibs Conflicts: system-xfree86 but 2:4.3-1 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). I have system 10.3.1 with Apple X11 SDK and Apple X11 with Fink 0.6.2 installed on my machine. On the fink side I have system-xfree86 2:4.3-1 installed, as well as, xfree86-shlibs 4.3.0-1. xfree86-base-threaded, xfree86-base-threaded-shlibs, and xfree86-rootless-threaded-shlibs are all in "archive" status as noted in finkcommander version 0.5.1 Thanks in advance for any help resolving this problem! s ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
