There was a crash without a clean exit it seems: I ran out of disk space. I had tempted the install of openoffice.org after seeing on this list that it did not try to install all the language packages anymore, but apparently 1.5G still isn't enough, it didn't even had enough space to expand the archive of the source. So I killed it with ^C when disk space ran out, because it seemed frozen, fink printed a few messages and then quit. I reinstalled fltk-x11 myself, and I think I will install openoffice only in that distant future when I have a new laptop or when space shortage forces me to do a major cleanup.
