I've just updated the system-tetex package, which I try to do very 
infrequently.  One of the new features is a much more robust
pre-install script.

I haven't been able to find a solution to the following problem: some
users will need to do a bit of disk housekeeping (removing obsolete
files by hand, files not under the control of dpkg) before updating.
If you attempt to update and this is needed, the pre-install script
tells you about it.  However, I am concerned about relatively inexperienced
users who will find that "fink update all" now chokes on system-tetex.

I remember some discussion about modifying fink so that if a given
package failed to update, you could bypass it and continue.  Has that
been implemented?
