I followed the instructions on fink's web site for removing xfree86,
installing Apple's x11, running fink selfupdate-cvs, and then installing
system-xfree86. However, I got an error while trying to install
system-xfree86. I noticed that it says it's installing 4.2-3 but the current
version in cvs is supposed to be 4.2.1-3. Did my selfupdate-cvs not take, or
is 4.2-3 and 4.2.1-3 the same thing?
