Hi Alexander,

I have manged (with tons of manual operations!) to get all working:

- fink selfupdate: see below
- apt-get : however it is noted as uninstalled in the fink install list!!!

- emacs: newest and with X11 support
- gs: newest and with X11 support
- gnuplot: newest
- cernlib2006

I made a crucial test using CERNLIB in a complex application and all
is working fine!

So why am not happy at all?

The point is the "tons of manual operations!". Here is the list and I am 
sure that
some of this is irrelevant:

- /usr/local:    got moved away
- /opt:             got moved away
- /sbin:           got moved away, since it includes "ldconfig" but I 
had to revert it since "chown" is there. So my fault!
- I downgraded Xcode by 2 notches, surely only a desperate move!
- What actually helped was:
a) I removed apt altogether from fink
b) Then I copied from /sw/src/fink.build/apt-XXX-XXX/ the bin, lib files 
and the methods directory to the appropriate location in fink /sw
c) In another desperate move I made 2 links in /sw/lib:
libapt-pkg.3.2.0.dylib -> libapt-pkg-libc6.5.3.2.0.dylib
libapt-inst.3.2.0.dylib -> libapt-inst-libc6.5.1.0.0.dylib
d) after that all could be installed
e) fink selfupdate complains about nothing!

So I really "fiddled" to get it going and I hate that! I apologize but I 
am actually a LINUX
guy and there I know how to handle packages but on the MAC I am 
completely lost!

- Therefore, I do not know why "ldconfig" is present and due to which 
package?!?
- Even less I know where libc6.5 comes from, where it resides and which 
packages are involved?!?

Hopefully, I can get further help to sort out this unsatisfying mess!

Many many Thanks for the extremely useful hints that allowed me to find 
the "fiddle"!
Hopefully, there is a sound fix!

Cheers, FS
