Not fine but outstanding (9)
I believe the answer is:
unsettled
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'not fine' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'outstanding' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'but' is the link.
(Other definitions for unsettled that I've seen before include "Troubled" , "(Of weather) lacking stability" , "Devoid of colonists" , "Nomadic lifestyle" , "Uneasy - pending - vagrant" .)
