Don't send posts to "fin...@li...".  That's

I believe this is due to some package from the binary distribution
having been built against a version of X11 that had

/usr/X11/lib/libXdamage.1.0.0.dylib

Really all that is needed from the recipe is step 1, "fink selfupdate"
from step 3, and step 4. 

"scanpackages" is completely irrelevant here, because all that does is
tell the apt database where your binaries are, and it's run
automatically after new packages get built by default. 
"fink index" is also generally not needed, because it gets run on every
"fink install" command.
"fink cleanup" doesn't do anything at all in this case, since it removes
only source tarballs and .deb files that are _older_ than what you're
trying to install.

pango1 isn't a real package anymore, and just installing gtk+2 should
update pango1-xft2-ft219 and atk1 for you.
