Contradictory Info?

I’m still using Fink Commander under Mojave. My most recent rsync update shows one puzzling entry:

scalar-list-utils-pm5184 is simultaneously shown as “provided” and “outdated”
The binary version is 1.50-1, the latest version is 1.55-1

Attempting to install it gives me this:

Preparing to replace scalar-list-utils-pm5184 1.50-1 (using .../scalar-list-utils-pm5184_1.55-1_darwin-x86_64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement scalar-list-utils-pm5184 ...

 trying to overwrite `/sw/lib/perl5/5.18.2/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/List/Util/Util.bundle', which is also in package scalar-list-utils-pm5182
Errors were encountered while processing:

### execution of /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 1
Failed: can't install package scalar-list-utils-pm5184-1.55-1

In terminal, perl -v tells me I’ve got 5.184 installed.
Thoughts and advice are welcome.

Thanks,
Dave
