There's no information in your *error* section.  There are many possible
failure modes that can give what you've posted.
A clean install shouldn't have mattered, unless you had a build-time
failure where the package was bringing in older, incompatible libraries
from the currently installed version.

It doesn't *look* like you should still have a Fink emboss executable. 
What do you get from "which emboss"?

How about posting the output from  "fink install emboss" so that we can
see better what's going on in the multi-package failure?  For that
matter, post the output from the recursive remove command that you're
trying.
