Maybe this stuff is helpful. I'm thinking that you want to UNdo something like this (the last paragraph, actually -- this is from the FAQ):
Q4.8: There's this package in unstable that I want to install, but the fink command just says 'no package found'. How can I install it?
A: First make sure you understand what 'unstable' means. Packages in there usually have not been tested at all, many have problems or just won't compile. That is why Fink doesn't search the unstable tree by default.
If you only want one or two specific packages, it is safer to copy those .info files (and their associated .patch files, if there are any) from /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/finkinfoto /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo. However, note that your package may depend on other packages (or particular versions) which are also only in unstable. You will have to move their .info and .patch files as well.
If you want Fink to use all of unstable, edit /sw/etc/fink.conf, add unstable/main and unstable/crypto to the beginning of the Trees: line, and then run fink selfupdate; fink index.

Robert,
I'm a newbie, but I'm thinking your answer may lie here: http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/users-guide/install.php#setup
thanks, but that's not the path I need to fix. If that were my problem, when I typed "fink selfupdate" bash (my shell of choice) would say "bash: fink: command not found".
Also, I wonder why your rsync is in the 10.2/unstable/ area when my system is in:'rsync://master.us.finkmirrors.net/finkinfo/10.2-gcc3.3/stable/crypto/finkinfo'
This is what I'm trying to figure out how to change - it should be the same as yours, but it's not. :)
