If you are indeed new to Debian, and you installed Etch instead of
Lenny, why are you already trying to use back port packages? Have you,
or do you intend to, install any back port packages?
I almost went this route to get up to Postfix 2.5.5, but instead I went
ahead and upgraded Etch to Lenny.
If you're not using any back ports, and don't intend to, remove it from
sources.list and try again.

Thanks again Stan again, I really need to backport some of the packages
becuase of un-avoidable reasons that is why I am trying to use backport,
so it would be helpful me
if this could further be resolved.

Ravi
