Something has gone wrong with your upgrade. You can try to do the update 
once again or, what I would do, fix your package tree manually. You 
should check if
- /sw/fink/dists is a symlink to /sw/fink/10.2
- the directory /sw/fink/10.2/CVS exists

If both tests are positive, you can go into /sw/fink/10.2 and do (as 
yourself, not as root)

   rm -rf stable unstable
   cvs up

If /sw/fink/10.2/CVS does not exist, you need to check out the whole 
dists/10.2 module again.

Yes, but they will be there only after the successful selfupdate-cvs.

Yes, there are, but minicom-2.00.0-2 exists in both of them.
