Jaye,

Klog is a sid (unstable) package.  I was able to create a sarge .deb of
the earlier version, but this didn't work for version 0.2.2 because
some of the build dependencies could not be satisfied.

I was able to install it by configuring my system to use pinning and
have testing (sarge) as the default but also look at unstable (using
/etc/apt/apt.conf and /etc/apt/preferences).  Then I was able to do
'apt-get -t unstable install klog', which pulled in the necessary
dependencies along with klog.  Perhaps that would work with Libranet.
