A couple of things to check, operationally, is whether /sw/fink/10.2 is present on your system, and whether /sw/fink/dists is a symbolic link to /sw/fink/10.2 . If not, then you might be able to solve the problem by going into the directory where you decompressed the fink source tarball to install/upgrade and running the perl script called postinstall.pl.in which is that directory
