I think I somehow got things tho work thanks to Alexander. 

Here is the order of things I did:
- changed the Distribution: in /sw/etc/fink.conf back from 10.10 to 10.9, 
- ./inject.pl from the halfdome beta distribution
- "fink reinstall fink" (I had to run this twice before getting the next 
command to work)
- "fink selfupdate"
- "fink update-all"
