Everything is going "quite smooth" now. But I've got a problem with files to seem to be missing. I found out some of the packages I compiled are archived. Why does Fink archieve certain packages? What's the purpose of it?

Fink creates archives of _everything_ that it builds. A primary purpose is to save compilation time if you ever need to install a package that you've built before.
