I'm having trouble with my PostgreSQL 7.3.4-2 package.
With help from Alex, I tried to remove/purge postgresql-{python,tcl} packages, to no avail. The following is the result.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]
$ sudo dpkg --purge --force-remove-reinstreq postgresql-{tcl,python-py23}
(Reading database ... 106195 files and directories currently installed.)

Now, I'm trying to reinstall postgresql, postgresql72-shlibs, and -dev. Only postgresql73-shlibs got successfully installed. The output below is the error I got:
$ fink reinstall postgresql73-dev
/usr/bin/sudo /sw/bin/fink reinstall postgresql73-dev

The following package will be reinstalled:

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

I'm crossing my fingers.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
