Fink help!! Not installing in Mavericks!
You didn't specify the version of fink you are using, but according to the Fink Announcement mailing list


  Note: be advised that fink-0.35.2 does NOT work for OS 10.9.  If you are 
  testing on 10.9 prior to the official release date, you will want to 
  grab an archive from https://github.com/fink/fink/tree/Futureproof2


And in the Fink Beginners mailing list


  We've added support for 10.9 into the master branch of the github 
  repository (https://github.com/fink/fink).  Folks that were using the 
  "Futureproof2" feature branch may want to update their git checkouts 
  appropriately to pick up changes that get made after the merge and 
  before we do a release.
  
  Some other notes:
  
  
  There is no 10.9 support in any released fink, version 0.35.2 or 
  earlier.  (The first 10.9 support release version will probably be 0.36.0)
  There is going to be no supported upgrade path from any earlier OS X. 
  The document /sw/share/doc/fink/INSTALL has information about how to 
  capture your list of installed packages.
  


Update

On October 31st, fink 0.36.0 was released which does support OS X 10.9.
