Take a look at http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html with particular attention to the "Before You Ask" section. This is in the archives of this mailing list about 1 zillion times, in the "Common Errors" of the APT Howto (located in the Documentation section of the Debian webpage), and in a zillion other places on the web.
