My latest update of svn died at package-installation time
(the build went without a hitch):

--------------->8 snip 8<---------------
[macmac:~] fang% fink update svn
Information about 6942 packages read in 3 seconds.
The following package will be installed or updated:
 svn
The following additional package will be installed:
 svn-shlibs
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
Reading buildlock packages...
Could not resolve inconsistent dependencies!

Fink isn't sure how to install the above packages safely. You may be able
to fix things by running:

  fink scanpackages
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install svn=1.4.3-12 svn-shlibs=1.4.3-12

Failed: Fink::SysState: Could not resolve inconsistent dependencies
--------------->8 snip 8<---------------

but then I noticed that I still had the obsolete svn-ssl package
installed.

 i   svn-ssl          1.4.3-11     OBSOLETE use svn instead

Removing that allowed me to install the built svn{,-shlibs}.

Problem solved, just thought I'd share.

My only wish is that the error message hinted some problem in the chain of
dependencies.
