A way more helpful to all
The best way to deal with this is type
fink selfupdate-cvs This will update Fink and the file descriptions. Often the maintainers are on the ball with these thinks and update the packages regularly. In the case of libpcap, I was able to install libpcap 0.6.2 with no problem. If there was still a problem, or you would like a package using version 0.7.1 instead, you can try typing fink describe libpcap and it will tell you who is maintaining it (in this case, Max Horn). You can either then e-mail him or better yet submit to the bug tracker at http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink.
Google
As TiMan says, the easiest way to go when you can't download a file from a site with Fink, is just to download "manually" the file and mv it to /sw/src. Fink will recognize it the next time you run 'fink install packagename' .
Google
If you manually download the src file and place it inteh /sw dir - does fink grab the .info and .patch files for you or do you need to manually grab those also?

Grab those from WHERE? |
