The problem is that db3 and db31 both provide db, and fink doesn't want to remove db31 in preference to db3, because you have a package that requires db31 explicitly, (Evolution?)
What version of gconf are you upgrading to? I have gconf-1.0.8 (from unstable), and it seems to coexist with db31. On Tue, 2002-04-09 at 16:56, Ujwal S.
