[hrothgar:~] root# fink list
Failed: A package name is not allowed to have the same
version-revision but different epochs: xemacs-21.4.15-1
  epoch 1       fink virtual or dpkg status
  epoch 0

Even if I remove the xemacs.info files and try 'fink selfupdate', I
still get this error message.  Anyone know what is causing this and
how to fix it?


What's causing it is that someone forgot to update the revision when the epoch got changed.

The offending file is probably a .deb file on your system from a prior build. Check in /sw/fink/debs.
