You don't want to use -fdepends in this case. (Dan should know better :-) )

 You want to use -fbuilddepends, since that will give you the packages
that were required to build amarok, but not to run it.

There's not a builtin way to feed fink that list, unfortunately. 
However, the debfoster package does provide a way to let you go
through and see what packages don't have anything that depends on
them--some will be build dependencies and some will be top-level
packages (e.g. those with user-level executables).
