Comment 24 for bug 321164

First, I uploaded the package minutes before posting my comment. After the upload take place the server has to build binary packages for all supported processor platforms and after that the resulting packages have to get distributed to the download mirrors. It can take several hours until a new package arrives at your mirror.

Second, you need to update your local package database so that apt-get knows what is available on your mirror. This is done automatically once a day (if you do nothing you will get notified about all new packages tomorrow), but to do it whenever you want, run

sudo apt-get update

Third, do not supply version numbers with apt-get. The newest version number is taken automatically:

sudo apt-get install foomatic-filters
