Hi,

when trying to install with "update" in a clean fink tree, passwd stumbles in 
the PostInstall phase:

> fink update passwd                                                                                        
Information about 11107 packages read in 2 seconds.
The following package will be installed or updated:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 passwd
### execution of /sw64/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 1
Failed: can't install package passwd-20100706-3

"fink install passwd" works, but since I habitually use "update" in place of "install" to make 
sure I get the newest version (or, in this case, the install was triggered as a dependency from a
"fink update" of another package), I thought this might be worth pointing out. 

Cheers,
					Derek
