I have installed fink-0.29.10.tar.gz on Macbook Pro 10.6.3 (Snow Leopard).

$ ./bootstrap

$ /sw/bin/pathsetup.sh

I have done:

fink self-update - which added two packages.
fink update-all - found nothing to do.

I then had many errors like this:
$ apt-cache search python
W: Couldn't stat source package list file: local/main Packages 
(/sw/var/lib/apt/lists/_sw_fink_dists_local_main_binary-darwin-i386_Packages) 
- stat (2 No such file or directory)
and so on


I then did:
fink configure -  to enable unstable
fink self-update - which added many
fink update-all  - nothing to do

I am now getting:

$ sudo  apt-get install python-imaging
Reading Package Lists... Done

W: Couldn't stat source package list file: unstable/crypto Packages

Any advice would be very welcome.
