Looks like something was installed?

No, "fink info" does not tell you whether the package is installed or not. According to what you showed earlier, you have xfree86-shlibs installed and xfree86 partially installed. You can see the exact state using

  dpkg -l xfree86\*

The command you proposed

  sudo dpkg -r --force-depends xfree86 xfree86-shlibs

is sufficient to remove both, perhaps followed by

  sudo apt-get -f install

to make apt-get happy.

Are there any users at this list who have the Intel Mac and have
successfully installed xfree86?

As far as I can tell, there are several who had the same problem as you.

And the most important question, does somebody understand what
happened at my system?

No, I think this is as yet unexplained.
