This type of thing is due to having at some time used a perl-xyz from
fink, (in this case when last building autoconf2.5 _ but many other
pkgs have the problem),
Jean-Francois,
I'm not sure if it's the same error you are seeing, but one bug I am aware
of is this: there is a place in the fink code where fink tests to see
which is the current version of perl installed on the system... unfortnately,
fink seems to cache this value in the database. So if you
you end up with a
*real* perl581, but a *virtual* perl581-core, and get this error.
Well, that can't be the right explanation, because there isn't a real
perl581 package at all.

Sorry, I meant add or remove a perl package not add or remove a fink
package...

Correct .
It is due to the fact that a number of pkgs install

Most of these packages allow the user to override their tests for perl by
