Rather than _assuming_ anything, you can check if tikz.sty even exists
on your machine via:

dpkg -S tikz.sty

-or-

dlocate tikz.sty

if you have the dlocate package installed (for a faster search).  Doing
that, you'll find that there is no such style file in Fink's tetex.

The best advice I have for you right now is to install a more modern TeX
distro.   I personally use MacTeX (TeXLive), which I did a custom
install of to avoid having it install Ghostscript and ImageMagick stuff
in /usr/local and thereby confuse my Fink builds.
