Over the past week or two I've been running into stalls on downloading. 
  At first it was just at the stage of getting the new archives for 
update-all commands, then it got worse, possibly because each time I 
eventually had to CTRL-C out of the operation(s).  I tried deleting 
various lock files, touching same to recreate them, etc., but this had 
no apparent effect.  I tried fink fetch-missing to separate downloading 
from processing, and it seemed to work, but afterward nothing had 
changed.  I ran fink configure many times, trying different 
repositories, to no effect.  Finally I set verbosity to 4 and tried to 
run fink cleanup:

...and there it waits, forever (or at least 24 hrs) without change 
(still 0%).  So I'm dead in the water.  The old fink stuff still works, 
as far as I can tell, but I can't make any changes or updates.

This is probably something really simple and I'm going to come off 
looking like a noob, but... HELP!
