You can always manually remove any package that dpkg says is causing a problem. For example, either one of the following would probably have solved it: fink remove fink-buildlock-kdelibs3-ssl-3.4.1-21 dpkg -r fink-buildlock-kdelibs3-ssl-3.4.1-21 Buildlocks are just ordinary packages that fink uses internally. Fink automatically cleans up buildlocks when it finishes building (regardless of whether the build succeeded or not). The only way they get left is if you crash your system or interrupt the lock removal itself. No real way to program around that:( dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
