Hello Mark.  There are several things to do:

1) Read the installation instructions for the package: they often mention
some of the requirements.

2) Watch the output of "configure" as it runs: in many cases it will
   mention things it is checking for and there might be a corresponding
fink package.

3) When everything is compiled, look for all the executables and libraries
your package has created, and run "otool -L" on them.  This tells you
which libraries they link to, and in the case of /sw/lib/..., the library
will be provided by a fink package.

  HTH,
  Dave
