This can happen if the machine or shell session shuts down during a build. Check /sw/var/lib/dpkg/status for entries for fink-buildlock-fink-package-precedence-0.16-1 and fink-buildlock-readline6-6.2.4-1. They are supposed to look like: Package: fink-buildlock-fink-package-precedence-0.16-1 Status: purge ok not-installed Section: unknown Architecture: darwin-x86_64 and Package: fink-buildlock-readline6-6.2.4-1 Status: purge ok not-installed Section: unknown Architecture: darwin-x86_64 respectively. If they don't, then it's safe to remove these entries completely, since they aren't actually necessary. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
