I just forced a remove of libicu-dev31 and then reran the fink installer, and then the dependency checker was then happy to remove libicu31 and replace it with the 32-dev package.
The compile I was doing (mono and associated packages) is now going ahead happily. If I do suffer adverse problems as a result of removing the package, I'll get back to you and describe what is now failing (and thus presumably dependant on the old package I removed).

Something is depending on libicu31 that can't be removed. What happens if you do a "sudo apt-get remove libicu31" ? (don't have to say yes, I just want to see what it's going to try to remove...) *********************************************************************************** The Royal Bank of Scotland plc.
