As far as I can tell, I've followed your instructions for bootstrapping
under Big Sur, But I still have about half-a-dozen packages that fail
right out of the gate. Here they are:

fink -y install elinks
Information about 11290 packages read in 2 seconds.
Can't resolve dependency "texi2html" for package "autoconf2.6-2.69-6" (no
matching packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.

fink -y install ffmpeg
Information about 11290 packages read in 2 seconds.
Can't resolve dependency "tetex-base" for package "caca-0.99.beta19-5" (no
matching packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.

fink -y install kshisen4-mac

Can't resolve dependency "help2man" for package "flex-2.6.4-3" (no matching
packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.

fink -y install lynx

Can't resolve dependency "texi2html" for package "autoconf2.6-2.69-6" (no

fink -y install slrn

fink -y install wget

fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The
candidates:

(1)	pinentry: Passphrase entry widget for gpg-agent
(2)	pinentry-fltk: Passphrase entry widget for gpg-agent
(3)	pinentry-gtk2: Passphrase entry widget for gpg-agent
(4)	pinentry-qt: Passphrase entry widget for gpg-agent
(5)	pinentry-qt5: Passphrase entry widget for gpg-agent

Pick one: [1] (assuming default)
Can't resolve dependency "locale-textdomain-pm5302" for package
"texinfo-6.3-603.1" (no matching packages/versions found)
Exiting with failure.
