below is the result of trying to install again. for some reason, i just think that fink _thinks_ it needs to install xfree86 because of pango, but shouldn't it just use the _already installed_ system-xfree86 instead?

Ok: this looks like you selected xfree86 by accident instead of system-xfree86 at one of the prompts. Try installing evolution again, and make sure to select system-xfree86.

What are the results if you run "fink list -i xft" and "fink list -i
xfree86"?  The answer will determine how things get straightened out.

-----------------------------------------------------

the only thing i can think of is that perhaps something with xfree86.
since i have a working install of apple's X11, i chose (during the
dependency stage) for only system-xfree86 to be installed as a
placeholder. and i think that part worked, because when it was
compiling, it reported finding apple's X11 and said everything was okay.


any ideas on this one? and i'll keep a sharper eye out for typos this
time.
