Ever tried http://www.apt-get.org ??

Try adding:

  deb http://people.debian.org/~sacha/debian stable main
  deb http://people.debian.org/~sacha/debian unstable main
  deb-src http://people.debian.org/~sacha/debian unstable main

to sources.list. Note that these aren't all that up-to-date; I think
the version there is still 2.5.6.
