Solve this via "fink scanpackages", which will generate the  
Packages.gz files apt-get is looking for.

These errors aren't really important operationally and wouldn't  
interfere with anything:  they show up because the unstable  trees are  
mapped over to apt-get to look for packages, but they aren't  
initialized yet.
