there is no such package available for Etch,
   http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=openstreetmap

and debian/control does not depend on 
 openstreetmap-map-icons-classic | openstreetmap-map-icons-scalable | openstreetmap-map-icons-square

note this was build without support for Mapnik and GDA3 -- 
OSM and POI database isn't used here.
