Hi Chris,
I ran into a stale dependency situation where I thought gamin-0.1.5_3 
was replacing fam.   I posted the issue and received the following 
command which replaced fam:

"You can only have one (fam or gamin) installed.  The following command 
will replace fam with gamin:

I posted my message around 1/31.  You may want to review archives and 
determine if this may apply to your situation.
