Better more data than less, particularly if I ask for it.  I've been
getting mightily peeved lately by people who post "how do I solve foo"
to which I reply "post output of <command list>"...which never happens.
I'm going to start killfiling idiots like that real soon, then I'm going
to take out hits on them....

But enough of that.

It looks like you've got gnupg installed and gpg-rsa isn't.   I do note
that you've got a more current gnupg than I:  1.0.3-2 vs. 1.0.2-1 on my
box (Woody).  Hmmm....

I don't know why you're getting failed deps when you try installing
gpg-rsa.  You might try running a "dpkg --configure -a" to try to
configure any pending packages, or just try installing again.  If that
fails, or maybe before trying it, give a shot at:

    $ apt-get update && apt-get install gpg-rsa 

...and if that fails:

    $ apt-get install gpg-rsa --force-depends

...to force the dependency.
