Your options are:
1. Wait for it to reach Stable.

It won't reach/be in stable until Etch is released.

2. Edit sources.list to include Testing, perform this upgrade, revert to Stable.
Note that the latter _might_ cause problems.
Of course you may opt to live a little more dangerously and move to testing. You can expect a few more bugs. By reporting them you will participate in the devolopment of Debian. The upside is that you get newer versions of packages earlier.

He has already put testing/etch in the sources.list that is why it is showing up and still has stable in there as well so it is trying to get the package from there. The OP is better off either doing a apt-get dist-upgrade to move entirely to testing/etch or taking those lines out of the sources.list and sticking to stable.
