That's completely not the problem here. The fink system can either
install Xdarwin itself, or be told that you've done it manually.
Recently, the "you've done it manually" part was updated to accomodate
the Apple X11 as a valid substitute, and the original poster didn't
have the updated version that recognizes Apple X11. The other answer
gave the proper response. Yours was a bit distracting.
