Have you been able to "sudo apt-get install" anything else? Because if
you have some repositories listed in /etc/apt/sources.list , then that
shouldn't occur, 'cos it's there to be had:

$ apt-cache search gitk
gitk - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system (revision
tree visualizer)

You could try a:

$ sudo apt-get update

because it's always good to get with the latest, and there's a small
chance that a stale package list at your end is gumming the works.

Otherwise, if you could:

$ egrep '^deb' /etc/apt/sources.list > /tmp/fred

then attach /tmp/fred to a post to the list, we could see what your
system has apt pointed at, and even try out your list.

I'm better at guessing when I don't have to guess so much. :-)
