I belive that another 'fink selfupdate' will update them. The problematic 
.info file has been patched, it is now ignored properly by older finks.

It is possible that they'll need to rm 
/sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/libs/perlmods/log-log4perl-pm581.info 
prior to a selfupdate, but I am not sure of that.

Was this the only issue with getting 0.16.1 users updated?
