There can be many reasons.

setup*.exe now does a rebase with each install but things like adding
packages in subsequent runs can still cause conflicts.  The simplest
thing to do when you see a fork-related complaint is to try rebasing.  If
you still see the problem after a simple rebaseall, delete the database at
/etc/rebase.db* and try rebaseall again.
