Yesterday I ran selfupdate-cvs followed by update-all.  The update hadn't
finished by the time I went home, so I just closed my laptop and took it
home.  At home I let it run (but without a network connection).  After much
compiling and disk crunching it conked out on the postgresql-python stuff
because it hadn't yet downloaded that file.  Now when I execute "fink list
postgres" it doesn't list that as installed, however a fink update-all
doesn't offer to download and install it either.  Furthermore, a mixture of
7.2.3, 7.3.2, and 7.3.4 stuff is installed:

    % fink list postgres

I imagine I can manually fiddle with things to get a more consistent view of
the PostgreSQL world (though I note there is no 7.3.4 version of
postrgresql-73 listed), but shouldn't fink notice the version mismatches and
at least complain, if not offer to update things itself?

Mildly confused in Evanston,
