I was just looking at this yesterday, from:
http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html
        "
        This is caused because apt's cache is too small to handle all of the
        packages that are included with stable, testing, and unstable.    This
        is also very easy to fix. Add the following line to   
        /etc/apt/apt.conf
        APT::Cache-Limit "8388608";
        "
