I tried your suggestion of the manual change to 10.4-transitional in
the two files you recommended but got
this error below after
fink scanpackages followed by sudo apt-get update

Thanks, I manually downloaded the tar file you suggested and
followed the update instructions on the sourceforge website.
I have managed to update everything (except xfig which will not compile)
to the latest version (fink-0.24.10.tar.gz) of 10.3.
However, I still cannot upgrade from 10.3 to 10.4 after several rounds of
the following routine
fink selfupdate command, followed by
sudo /sw/lib/fink/postinstall.pl
fink scanpackages and
sudo apt-get update
If nothing helps, you can always open the two files /sw/etc/fink.conf and
/sw/etc/apt/sources.list in a text editor and replace every "10.3" (one in
the first file, two in the second) that you find there by
"10.4-transitional". This should have been done automatically by
postinstall.pl; no idea why it hasn't.
