I have to confess: I have created a *local* system-tetex.info file  
in /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo:


Package: system-tetex
Version: 20061216
Revision: 1
Depends: base-files (>= 1.8.0-1)
Provides: tetex-texmf, tetex-base, pdftex, hyperref, tetex-macosx,  
oberdiek, context, jadetex
Conflicts: tetex-texmf, tetex-base, pdftex, hyperref, tetex-macosx,  
oberdiek, context, dvipdfm (<= 0.13.2c-3)
Type: nosource
Maintainer:  Dave Morrison <drm at finkproject.org>
Description: Placeholder package for manually installed teTeX, gwTeX,  
or TeX Live
DescDetail: <<
  Install this package if you have installed teTeX or TeX Live  
separately
  from Fink, for example, by using Gerben Wierda's distribution (see
  http://www.rna.nl/tex.html) or the MacTeX install package, which is
  based on it (see http://www.tug.org/~koch/).  The package checks to  
see
  if you have a valid installation of a system TeX in /usr/local/gwTeX.

  This package insists on a complete installation of TeX: in order to  
ensure
  that from Wierda's distribution, you may need to use the expert  
mode in
  i-Installer and install "TeX Programs (developer extras)" in  
addition to
  the standard install.

  Because of the complicated interaction between Wierda's  
distribution and
  fink, if you need to update this package or to switch between  
system-tetex
  and the fink teTeX packages tetex-texmf and tetex-base, you must  
first remove
  all packages which depend on tetex-base, such as latex2html. You
  can reinstall them after the update.
<<
DescPackaging: <<
  We put /usr/local/gwTeX/bin/... at the end of the user's path to  
ensure that
  fink's install-info is used rather than the install-info found in  
teTeX.
  Starting in rev. 9, we also add /usr/local/teTeX/man to the MANPATH  
(which
  is set in init.(c)sh prior to loading the system-tetex profile  
script).

I did not pay much intention, I just made a few changes to make the  
package work. With other changes it also would work with TeX Live –  
although one would need every year a new version or make the year's  
number be the output of `date +%Y` ...


To create own local packages from a Fink one (to get rid of  
dependencies from Tcl/Tk, Ruby, Python, GTK, and a lot more, it's at  
least needed to increment the Revision from <number> to <number>l,  
for local, or whatever, for example the first name's first character,  
or to set the Version date to be that of the day the Fink .info file  
was created; with a new version from Fink the local version will be  
"overridden" and a new adaptation will be needed.)
