E: Unable to fetch some archives, try running apt-get update or apt-get

apt-get update does not change anything, while the suggested  apt-get
--fix-missing is not a valid command for my version:

-----
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/apt$ sudo apt-get --fix-missing
apt 0.6.46.4ubuntu10 for linux i386 compiled on Mar 14 2007 17:43:24
Usage: apt-get [options] command
       apt-get [options] install|remove pkg1 [pkg2 ...]
       apt-get [options] source pkg1 [pkg2 ...]

apt-get is a simple command line interface for downloading and
installing packages. The most frequently used commands are update
and install.

Commands:
   update - Retrieve new lists of packages
   upgrade - Perform an upgrade
   install - Install new packages (pkg is libc6 not libc6.deb)
   remove - Remove packages
   source - Download source archives
   build-dep - Configure build-dependencies for source packages
   dist-upgrade - Distribution upgrade, see apt-get(8)
   dselect-upgrade - Follow dselect selections
   clean - Erase downloaded archive files
   autoclean - Erase old downloaded archive files
   check - Verify that there are no broken dependencies

Options:
  -h This help text.
  -q Loggable output - no progress indicator
  -qq No output except for errors
  -d Download only - do NOT install or unpack archives
  -s No-act. Perform ordering simulation
  -y Assume Yes to all queries and do not prompt
  -f Attempt to continue if the integrity check fails
  -m Attempt to continue if archives are unlocatable
  -u Show a list of upgraded packages as well
  -b Build the source package after fetching it
  -V Show verbose version numbers
  -c=? Read this configuration file
  -o=? Set an arbitrary configuration option, eg -o dir::cache=/tmp
See the apt-get(8), sources.list(5) and apt.conf(5) manual
pages for more information and options.
                       This APT has Super Cow Powers. Moo!
