After updating fink to the latest version (0. ), I ran fink update all, which terminates with the following lines:

Is that the old X11-discussion again? I'm not using X11 too often, but do I really have to decide between the two of them?

Yes you do:
http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-packages.php?phpLang=en#apple- x11-wants-xfree86
And if you really want to be using Apple's X11 you need to clear out any prior Fink-installed xfree86 packages.
