Your reason for the "-t etch" may prove enlightening.  Is this a mixed
system?  Are you in the midst of an upgrade?  What are the contents of
/etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/debian_version?

For etch, the release notes say that the preferred package manager is
aptitude since it handles problems such as this more intellegently.
