I tried uninstalling it: "fink remove time-hires-pm581" didn't work, and the suggested command "fink remove --recursive time-hires-pm581" produced about 500 dependency errors. I finally succeeded by running "fink remove time-hires-pm", then "fink remove time-hires-pm581". Thanks, Emily -- "If it seem slow, wait for it; it will surely come, it will not delay."
