The downside to using fink to install Python et. al. is that the compatible graphics packages (netpbm and imagemagick) don't work with Plucker and the Python build doesn't include the Imaging Library. i don't know why, but it looks like you still have to fool around with makefiles and try building PIL yourself or skip fink entirely and get a distro of Python that includes PIL.
FYI: I've tried the fink unstable tree as well, with no luck...
