A)  Please put a more meaningful subject line in the future, not
"Fink-beginners Digest Vol blah, Issue foo"

B)  Did you try running the command given to you as above?

Sometimes the dependency engine gets confused (though I haven't seen an
issue with pcre before) with large package dependency trees.  Under such
circumstances, the best thing to do is to try to install any packages
that you are told to by messages from the Fink tools (as per above) and
then to repeat whatever install command you started with (i.e. 'fink
install gnumeric' in  this case); then repeat as needed.
