As discussed with Aurelien in person, the error is caused by the fact
that the packae has a version number of 2.8~something, which is not
>= 2.8.
The error message should be improved, so that this possiblity is
reflected (i.e. that not the package name is the problem but in fact the
version number).
Gruesse,
