No.

What I'm trying to get at here is:  don't run "update-all" for now.

"the packages" in my message refers to "your whole list of packages that
need to be updated".

One way to do this semi-automatically is to use something like

for pkg in $(fink list -ot | cut -f2) ; do fink update $pkg ; done

(in bash, at any rate)

That's going to require intervention on your part, unfortunately, to
keep running.
