Vim 6.1 became available through Fink shortly after it was announced last
week. :) Look for it under unstable:

  /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-6.0-2.info
  /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-nox-6.0-4.info
  /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-6.1-1.info
  /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-nox-6.1-1.info

Two standard ways to get an unstable package (FAQ):

  * add 'unstable/main' to the 'Trees: ' line in /sw/etc/fink.conf

  * copy the files you need, plus any dependencies, to local:

    % find /sw/fink/dists -name '*vim*6.1*' -print | xargs grep Depends
    /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-6.1-1.info:Depends: gtk+
    /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-nox-6.1-1.info:Depends: dlcompat

    % find /sw/fink/dists/stable | egrep '(gtk\+|dlcompat)-.*info' | more
    /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/gnome/gtk+-1.2.10-5.info
    /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/dlcompat-20020413-1.info

    So the dependencies aren't an issue here, just copy the vim stuff:

    % cp unstable/main/finkinfo/editors/vim-* local/main/finkinfo/editors/

Then, once you've done one of those, run "fink install vim" to apply the
new version.
