You can use fink's IDLE (for python 2.5) via

    /sw/bin/idle2.5

Alternately, you can use

    fink install python-1:2.5.4-1

which should give you a /sw/bin/idle that points to /sw/bin/idle2.5. 
You can use "which idle" to see if fink's or the IDLE from your Python
is in front.

The IDLE that you've been using only knows about the paths that your
Python distribution has set up (as per your prior message) and doesn't
know about any of Fink's python paths.  Maybe you could configure it to
look for Fink's python stuff--I haven't been using Python much (as of
yet) and so I don't know if that will work or not.
