I ran a 'fink list -o' to get a list of out-of-date files. One of the packages was "shared-mime-info". So I told it to update that using the "-b" switch. Below is the entire (short) output. It told me I needed "gettext" and "gettext-dev" as well but apparently there is an error and it downgrades it.
(i) shared-mime-info 0.14-7 Shared MIME System
