Yep, using Sierra and then I tried: fink reinstall fink Use 'fink reinstall fink' to switch distributions from 10.11 to 10.12. Information about 9827 packages read in 5 seconds. WARNING: your info file index has not been updated for 16 days. You should run 'fink selfupdate' to get the latest package descriptions. The following package will be reinstalled: fink Reading buildlock packages... /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait -i /sw/var/cache/apt/archives/fink_0.39.5-101_darwin-x86%5f64.deb (Reading database ... 241941 files and directories currently installed.)

Is there a remedy or should I install Fink from scratch again?
