If your slapt-getrc is what you posted in this e-mail, then you don't
have the sources for that package listed in your
/etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc file. Slapt-get was drawing off old package
caches on your box.

You'll need to add the sources for those packages to your
/etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc file. Once you've done that, then run
slapt-get --update to get fresh package lists on your box. You should
then be able to get what you want.

HTH,
John
