What version of Debian are you using? I'm guessing probably slink.
The meta-package communicator apparently came into being in potato.
So for slink, I'd guess you need to do something like:
apt-get install communicator-smotif-45 netscape-java-45
and apt should figure out what the rest of the needed files
are for you. Note: the netscape-java-45 package is only if you want
the java runtime stuff, which you most likely do.

The package netscape4 is only an installer for the tarball that can
be downloaded from Netscape's site.
