If any of the above dpkg error messages mention conflicting packages or missing dependencies -- for example, telling you that the package fink-buildlock-fink-0.36.1-51 conflicts with something else -- fink has probably gotten confused by trying to build many packages at once. Try building just this current package fink (i.e, "fink build fink"). When that has completed successfully, you could retry whatever you did that led to the present error. Regardless of the cause of the lock failure, don't worry: you have not wasted compiling time! Packages that had been completely built before this error occurred will not have to be recompiled. See http://wiki.finkproject.org/index.php/Fink:buildlocks for more information. /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait -r fink-buildlock-fink-0.36.1-51 >/dev/null dpkg: parse error, in file `/sw/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 12709 package `fink-buildlock-libxml2-py27-2.9.1-2': missing version ### execution of /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 2 Failed: buildlock failure Any ideas to fix this?
