I just started fink to ask the exact same question. After fighting this in 
circles for about an hour and a half I think my request for help might have 
been a little more laden with frustration. I can test the JRE installation and 
can see it in the associated web pages test link. I can also see the JRE 
configuration panel in the system preferences. I am using Yosemite and was 
using fink successfully prior to the upgrade.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
