Is anyone else having fink problems with panther?

I did an archive install and installed a fresh copy of Fink from VT. I've installed X11 and it's SDK and was able to get ethereal to compile and run.

When trying to get some other apps, including a selfupdate of fink, to compile I keep getting the following error:

Failed: Problem resolving dependencies. Check for circular dependencies.

Any idea where I should be looking to resolve this?

Fink 0.60 Source Build??

Fink advises Panther users to do a bootstrap build of the 0.60 full source bundle. I did that yesterday and 'selfupdate' worked OK. Also built 'ethereal' without problems. I haven't tried anything else, yet.

Does anyone know if 10.3 has wget preinstalled or will I have to get fink again to get wget? I know with jaguar I did, and wget is awesome 🙂

wget is not installed.

Bootstrapping Fink from the 6x src seems to be the ticket however.

Thanks
