The amide package is not part of the official fink distribution so we
aren't obligated to perform any troubleshooting on it nor their
install instructions.  You should contact the developer and tell them
that we'd be more than happy to add it to our official packages--and
forward this message to them, too, so that if they're not willing to
do things the "right" way, they can at least fix their instructions or
their broken package.

What appears to have happened is that they built it with a different
version of libiconv than you have on your system, and they didn't use
a versioned dependency to make sure that you installed the right one.
They seem to have built the amide package with libiconv-1.10 which is
not backwards compatible with the ibiconv-1.9.1 that I believe you
have installed.  That's what the compatibility version means.

You'll need to install at least the compilers and SDKs from the XCode
Tools (I recommend 2.4.1), and do a "fink selfupdate"  with either cvs
or rsync (preferrred) updating; this should update your libiconv to
1.10.
