After this I have another problem :-( :

Defiant:~# apt-get install xosview
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
gideon: Depends: automaken but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).

apt-get -f install removes gideon.

I couldn't find a switch to say apt-get to ignore this. Is there one or
what can I do?

Thanks,

Sebastian
