Yes, I think it is a bug in the new fink.
In SelfUpdate.pm, the line
next unless ($tree =~ /stable/);
was changed to
next unless ($tree eq "stable" or $tree eq "unstable");
But $tree is typically something like "stable/crypto", so this never matches. This was added 6 weeks ago, but since developers never use selfupdate-rsync, it was not noticed until the CVS HEAD hit the streets :-)
Bug author CCed.
Fixed in CVS HEAD. Please check that this now works correctly, and we'll push a new fink pkg ASAP.

Yes, the new version works fine for me. I've got the standard looking rsync command now.
And I thought, wow, they cleaned it up and made the rsync command that much shorter. Good work :)
The new version of fink is now out.
In addition to suggestions made earlier, note that users can be instructed to download fink-0.22.1.tar.gz, untar it by hand, and then run "./inject.pl" from within the fink-0.22.1 directory.
Shouldn't some info be posted on Fink Users, Fink Beginners, and the Fink Home Page about how to recover from Fink 0.22.0? I got stuck with Fink 0.22.0 - it wouldn't download new packages, so of course it wouldn't update to 0.22.1. I manually downgraded using dpkg, then did a selfupdate and it found the new fink, and a very long list of updated packages.
There must be many other unstable users who have Fink 0.22.0, and they need to be told what to do to restore selfupdate functionality. I hesitate to post something myself, as I'm not a core developer, and I don't have all the info or knowledge of the issue.
