While trying to install amarok, fink tries to install tetex. Since I

it cannot proceed because of some tex-related files in /sw

I erased those files manually, but the installation still fails again,
complaining about kpathsea. Here is the complete log:

Any help on how to proceed is greatly appreciated.

P.S. System: powerBook 12" running MacOs 10.3.9, fink just updated to
latest version

Remove libkpathsea4 ?

That didn't help, unfortunately. Or not completely. I managed to install system-tetex (fink install system-tetex does not report errors now). However, if I try again to execute 'fink install amarok' I get the following error, still tetex related (I think):


thrasymachus:~ stefano$ fink install amarok
