[Debian-hebrew-common] installation fails on Sarge?

[Amos Shapira]

Hello,

First I'd like tothank the people who contributed to this
package and I think you've done a great and important
job.

Now I need some help with it:

I have a pretty virgin Sarge installation, I added the line
described in your page (with "sarge" as the distro)
to my source.list and tried to install debian-hebrew.

To make a long story short, here is what I get:

# apt-get install debian-hebrew
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  debian-hebrew: Depends: hdate-applet but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

Hdate applet is found by apt-get but it depends on unavailable packages:

# apt-get install hdate-applet

                Depends: libedataserver1.2-4 (>= 1.2.3) but it is not

to be installed
                Depends: libxml2 (>= 2.6.20) but 2.6.16-7 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

What gives?

Also - I downloaded the source tar to look at the script - I understand
it targets newbies and therefore refrains from asking questions, but
then it would be more approperiate to name it "debian-israel" as it assumes
that the installer lives in Israel. How about giving an "interactive" or
"run some parts" command line option? For instance my main interest
in it is in finding if I can make the KDE keyboard use alt-shift to switch
languages without resorting to editing configuration files.

Thanks,
