Thinking that I knew what I was doing I removed the gnome-vfs and gnome-vfs-shlibs 
.deb files, assuming that I could just rebuild them.  I got the tarball (fink fetch) 
for gnome-vfs and tried to build it (fink build).  There was a 1.0.4-2 version in 
/sw/fink/debs and in /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main - there were also 1.0.3-5 versions 
of gnome-vfs, gnome-vfs-shlibs, and gnome-vfs-dev in /sw/fink/debs and 
/sw/fink/dists/stable - the version on the tarball was 1.0.3-5.  Now fink complains 
that it can't build gnome-vfs-1.0.4-2 because no package description is available.

Yes, I realize that I should have mv'd the .debs instead of rm'ing them.

Any suggestions that might help me extricate myself the mess that I've created?

I'll refrain from trying to "fix" anything else until I have a reasonable good plan - 
for which I am relying on you  8^)

Thanks,

Warren
