Did you follow the instructions on the Fink home page for upgrading to 
Mac OSX 10.4? The package versions you are showing are those for 10.3. 
Your best bet at the moment for upgrading (or installing a fresh Fink) 
is to follow the instructions for the "stable" tree (keyword 
"bootstrap"). Once this is running, you can activate the unstable tree 
and install packages from there, but this is not necessary for the 
version of vpython in Fink. It is the same in stable and unstable.

If you are more adventurous, you can try to get from the mixture of old 
and new that you have now to a working 10.4 installation by running 
"fink selfupdate" at least twice. Then "fink install visual-py23".

Note that for all of this you need the XTools developer tools installed. 
Precompiled binaries for 10.4 do not yet exist. They are being prepared 
right now, but this will still take a while.

I am planning to upgrade the vpython Fink package for 10.4 to a more 
recent version, but I am not yet quite there.
