Umm...you didn't quite follow the FAQ, because it specifically says to remove system-xfree86:

http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/comp-packages.php#cant-install-xfree

Anyway, you can remove it, and system-xfree86-upgrade, by using

sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends <package>

where <package> is the name of the package--you'll have to do this for both individually.

I recently uninstalled Apple's X11 0.3, and migrated to XDarwin 4.3.0.
Everything works - well, X works, anyway - but I still have X 4.2.x
placeholders in my fink packages:

[localhost:~] me% fink list --installed
Information about 2551 packages read in 4 seconds.

  i   system-xfree86-42    4.2-3           Placeholder: XFree86 4.2.x and
Apple X11 beta 3   i   system-xfree86-upgr  1.0-1           (place-holder

  i   xfree86              4.3.0-15        XFree86 distribution
  i   xfree86-shlibs       4.3.0-15        XFree86 distribution

I followed the FAQ and docs and whatnot, so what's the system-xfree86
stuff still doing there?  I'm only a Unix user, not a Unix guru, so if
you type slowly and don't use too many big words, I should be able to
follow your explanation. :)

Thanks -
