Finally problem gone, fixed (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mended

'fixed' is the definition.
('mend' can be a synonym of 'fix')

'finally problem gone' is the wordplay.
'finally' suggests the final letters.
'gone' becomes 'ended' (both can mean over or finished).
The final letter of 'problem' is 'm'.
'm'+'ended'='MENDED'

(Another definition for mended that I've seen is " Repaired, fixed".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
