Well, you should only install packages (from etch) that are needed to 
build gpsdrive :)
I created a new etch chroot with deboostrap, added the gpsdrive mirror
to my /etc/apt/sources.list and got the same error. That's why i assume 
that it is a problem with your build machine.

You may also use pbuilder to build in a clean environment:
pbuilder --create --distribution etch --mirror <your mirror> 
pbuilder update
pbuilder build gpsdrive_2.10pre4-1_i386.dsc
 or
cd gpsdrive-src
pdebuild

This is also a nice way to spot missing build dependencies.

Cheers, 
Andreas
