hello, i am trying to update fink after having updated my laptop to osx tiger and am having a problem with emacs. i was using an old unstable,
cvs version of emacs.  now when i use it i get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] emacs

Invalid read syntax: "."
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

i ran selfupdate-rsync which went fine... i then ran update-all, and upon
getting to emacs, i got the following problems:

Setting up emacsen-common (1.4.15-2) ...

Did you try rebuilding  (fink rebuild emacs21) like it says above?
