Martin-

On the PPC 10.5.8 machine-

I was unable to update scipy-core-py25 directly through fink, and when  
attempting to install numpy-py26-1.3.0.7 using apt-get gave me the  
same warning about deleting my gnome installation.

Using
sudo dpkg -r --force-all scipy-core-py26
  and following it by
fink install scipy-core-py26
  as you suggested was successful. All packages now have been  
successfully updated.

Thank you very much!

Stan
