Thanks for both replies. The repo doesn't seem to work.
I get this error:

--------------
The Sources he is looking for seems to be in Sources.gz, Packages has
problems too.

I did compile Gambas 3.4.90 on another Debian Wheezy VM.
This needs gstreamer 1.0, found in sid repo
Gambas 3.4.2 compiled without any need of sid repo as I tested that
before the 3.4.90 compile.

So for Wheezy, gambas 3.4.2 don't seem to need stuff from other repos.
So what did you mean with:
---
however you need access to debian unstable to meet all the dependencies,
so it's relatively pointless, because kendek's Ubuntu PPA packages will
work exactly the same as mine, the main difference is it says "Debian"
instead of "Ubuntu" in the manpages)
---
Is this to meet Squeeze dependencies or what?
