Other methods if you're offline include

"fink dumpinfo -fparent  <packagename>" --returns the parent package
for a splitoff, and nothing for the parent package (or any other
package that has no splifoffs)

"fink dumpinfo -ffamily <packagename>? --returns all of the packages
in the .info file for <packagename>. The first one in this list is the
parent package, which should usually be what the .info file is named
for.
