the easiest solution is to install synaptic..............
this will usually take care of nasty deps if they are available with your current mirrors..........
you may also need to edit you /etc/apt/sources.list
simply open it in your preferred editor and add a # before the stable line and remove a # from the unstable line........
or you can search apt-get.org for mirrors with the desired programs on and add those too your sources.list...
goodluck
