I'm putting this on the fink-beginners list, too, as these errors have
nothing directly to do with wxmaxima-mac; the final package you're
trying to install should be irrelevant to an error that you get in one
of its dependencies.  Your error is confusion within the Fink dependency
engine itself, not with any particular package.

When you say "...I get no solution...", that covers a lot of ground. 
Can we see the output from

sudo apt-get install db44-aes=4.4.20-1002

?
