[xcrysden] troubles installing xcrysden

[Ryky Nelson]

I just tried removing and installing xcrysden in my mac, it went fine. I'm
not sure what's the real problem in your case. You said you've also tried
mirrors from different continents/countries? Or perhaps you need to update
fink and all its stuff first:
http://www.finkproject.org/faq/upgrade-fink.php. If it doesn't help either,
I'm sorry I can't help further.
