I just recently reinstalled Tiger on an iBook (G3) and downloaded the latest Fink package and installed it. [NB. fink -V yields: Package manager version: 0.24.10, Distribution version: 0.8.0.rsync]

After installing I edited the fink.conf file with the unstable tree (as I had it before). [i.e/, local/main unstable/main unstable/crypto stable/main stable/crypto local/bootstrap]

Then I ran fink selfupdate, which ran into the following problem:

Can't set build lock for apt (0.5.4-52)

If any of the above dpkg error messages mention conflicting packages or missing
dependencies -- for example, telling you that the package
fink-buildlock-apt-0.5.4-52 conflicts with something else -- fink has probably gotten confused by trying to build many packages at once. Try building just
this current package apt (i.e, "fink build apt"). When that has completed
successfully, you could retry whatever you did that led to the present error.

Regardless of the cause of the lock failure, don't worry: you have not wasted
compiling time! Packages that had been completely built before this error
occurred will not have to be recompiled.
Failed: buildlock failure


I've tried straight fink update, fink update-all, fink build apt, fink install apt, but same error message. What do I need to do to get it to build apt?
