The MacGimp fink version is really old, and seems only works with OS
10.0.x .  Check out

http://fink.sourceforge.net/download/upgrade.php

for information on what you may need to do for the upgrade

Do you have an appropriate version of the Development Tools (December
2001 for OS 10.1.x)installed?  That's what givees you cvs by default.

Even though fink will let you install a CVS package from the binary
distribution, you won't be able to run 'fink selfupdate' without the Dev
Tools.
