It runs with 10.5 if you installed it on 10.4 before upgrading. 
Otherwise, the Fink home page says:

"10.5 users who are starting a new Fink tree will need to do this via 
bootstrap, until a binary distribution gets generated. Download 
fink-0.27.7 here."

That would be your situation. You need to download the *.tar.gz file, 
unpack it, and then run the command "bootstrap" that is inside the 
fink-0.27.7 directory. You need to have the Xcode developer tools installed.
