chenly, I suppose you've used one of Fink's binary package installers. They are not very polished and I actually never use them.
Just use source compile and installation: 'fink install <package-name>', read 'man fink' and visit the online docs at
http://fink.sourceforge.net
Bear in mind that compilation of the X11 stuff will take sometime, but you'll get used to it.
It's far easier that it sounds, there's even KDE support now!

directory
A listing of the contents of the directory in key value notation where the file name is the key and its attributes the asso-
ciated value.
link The attributes of the link, including the path it refers to.
