Well after changing all of the lines in my sources.list from etch to testing, I'm getting an error.

/My sources.list is:

/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Snapshot i386 NETINST Binary-1 20070107-08:41]/ etch contrib main

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates testing contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates testing contrib/

Your first line points to testing but the third line (security) still
points to etch.

Oh wow, I didn't notice that. Well I removed the etch and replaced it with testing, but now I'm getting this error:
