Failed: Can't resolve dependency "gcc3.1" for package "prcs-1.3.2-1" (no matching packages/versions found)
and the build process stopped right there before it even started.
Now in fink-0.24.0, one gets a different behavior: fink pretends to try to install gcc3.1 which fails, of course, and there is a more verbose error message which, however, gets drowned in a pile of garbage admin messages. The behavior is unreasonable and the message is no longer user-understandable (and the first complaint appeared already on the users list):
