Hi David, I have finally solved the proble the "old way" (aka brute force): (1) I have removed all the installed packages pm586 and dependencies, (2) I have removed all the *pm586* entries in /sw/fink/debs/ (3) I have removed all the *.deb pointed by the symlinks.
>From this "ground state" I have been able to rebuild all the pm586 packages I had installed. In the process I have noticed two things that may explain the failures: (a) the installed packaged were mixed between stable/unstable and stable/unstable/*/10.4-EOL, while they are now all in stable/unstable/*/10.4-EOL; (b) while most of the packages were marked as new in postinstall summary, a few were marked as updated: missing symlinks?
