1) You are using quite old Ubuntu release 6.06 I guess that means
released in 2006. The package you are looking for is available in
latest release ( 9.04 Jaunty Jackalop - released in April 2009)
Universal repos.
2) Using Debian repos on Ubuntu or vice-versa is discouraged.
3) Since Debian != Ubuntu, you should ask this question on Ubuntu Mailing List.
