Hello,

I have a fresh 10.7 system that I installed fink on and 
cannot install emacs23. I tried a fink self-update and 
fink update-all to make sure everything was current.
 At the end of this message is what is printed to the screen
 (error at the bottom, of course).

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Thanks!
