In general, it's helpful to provide some text for your failure mode;
since "can't update" covers a lot of possible causes. However, in
this case I can tell what your problem is.
You have a stale package description cache, and so you'll need to run
"fink index -f" to forcibly refresh it, and then you should be able to
selfupdate and get fink and gettext-tools updated.
