In general, when you've got a question, it's a good idea to try doing
a simple web search, or search of this mailing list's archives.  In
particular, your question gets asked pretty frequently (it's not really
that weird an apt-get error).

See http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#apt-howto . . .it has a
brief bit explaining how to solve your problem.

You may also want to read:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html . . .and in
particular, the "Before You Ask" section.
