That is rarely the right thing to do, because Fink builds
deterministically. One typically ends up right at the same point.

The message is leaving out the possibility of a dangling symlink, true,
since the test is whether
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home is a directory and
executable. An invalid symlink will cause this test to fail.
See if your symlink is valid e.g. via "ls
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home".
I'm not sure why the maintainer turned off using the output of
/usr/libexec/java_home, since that's nominally still usable when Apple
messes with Java, and doesn't have all of the symlinks:
$ grealpath
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home
/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home
Alexanders-MacBook-Pro:fink hansen$ /usr/libexec/java_home
/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home
As a workaround, you might try editing
/sw/fink/dists/stable/main/finkinfo/devel/ppl9.info, uncomment the
"JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home`" line, and comment out the
"JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_FW/Home" line. If you're still having problems, then
something may be incomplete in your Java installation.
