The duplicate is for more than just main. If you want the more, then delete the line with just main. If you only want main, delete the line with more.
I've removed the following lines from /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/ etch main deb-src http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/ etch main I hope this will do.
