To get that package, add the universe repositories in your 
/etc/apt/sources.list.

Here is an example of lines of /etc/apt/sources.list which have the 
universe repository included (as well as multiverse).  Remove multiverse 
if you don't want it, replace breezy with the proper version of Ubuntu 
(probably Edgy by now), and the first part with your favorite location 
(this one is somewhere in australia).

 deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe multiverse
 deb-src http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe multiverse



Then you can just download the package with your favorite package 
manager as you would do with any other.

Best of luck.
