That's rather drastic to fix the installation of just one package :) To fix fink itself first you could try: fink reinstall fink Then try to install your package again. If the problems persist, I recommend posting your question on the fink users mailinglist (http://fink.sourceforge.net/lists/fink-users.php). Most fink developers read it, so you'll have a better chance to get a useful answer. hth, - Koen.
