Hi Alexander,

Thanks for the quick reply.  Yes, EMBOSS is the _only_ package being updated.  
Same result if I do a "fink update emboss":

>From the Fink "Recent Package Updates" for EMBOSS:

2010-08-06: emboss-6.3.1-101 (Molecular Biology Open Software Suite)

EMBOSS is a free Open Source software analysis package specially
developed for the needs of the molecular biology (e.g. EMBnet) user
community. The software automatically copes with data in a variety of
formats and even allows transparent retrieval of sequence data from the
web. Also, as extensive libraries are provided with the package, it is a
platform to allow other scientists to develop and release software in
true open source spirit. EMBOSS also integrates a range of currently
available packages and tools for sequence analysis into a seamless
whole.

commit log from dmacks:
completely overhaul package layout, with new lib package-names and
root dir; now with more externalized support libs too!

I noticed that there has been a "completely overhaul package layout".  My guess 
is that something didn't go well with the overall, thus invoking these new (and 
non-essential) dependencies.

Thanks again,

Scott
