Dear Fink Developers
I am in the process of resubmitting the fluidsynth package after doing some
requested modifications to the corresponding .info file. The validation, build
and binary checking all complete successfully but the `fink install
packagename` step constantly returns errors.
$ fink install fluidsynth

The package 'fluidsynth' will be installed.

Copying the info file into /sw/share/info still returns an error:

Adding a START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY field does not solve the problem.
I would appreciate a correction to this problem. Many thanks.
