I'm running a MacOS X 10.3 system that was upgraded from 10.2.

The Fink installation seems totally confused, and can't upgrade to
current packages.  I figured that I'dc just re-install Fink from
scratch, except that the de-installation instructions tell me to
delete the /usr/X11R6/ and /etc/X11 directory hierarchies to remove
the Fink version of XFree86.  These directories are also used by the
MacOS X11!  So I have two questions:

(1) Why does Fink insist on installing its own version of XFree86
instead of using the native X11?

(2) Why does FInk not install its own version of XFree86 in /sw
instead of "corrupting" (or at least inextractably mixing itself with)
my other version of X11?

Do I now have to reinstall Panther to fix my native X11?

Thanks!
