All the above looks very suspicious to me _ please copy verbatim from  
your terminal ..
Output should look like :

# dpkg -S `which cp`
coreutils-default: /sw/bin/cp
# ls -l `which cp`
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 23 Jan  3 20:57 /sw/bin/cp -> ../lib/ 
coreutils/bin/cp
# fink list -t coreutils

  i      coreutils-default       1:6.9-3 GNU flavoured basic commands
