boot-floppies broken?

[Nic Ferrier <nferrier@tapsellferrier.co.uk>]

I have a mostly stable/testing system.

I wanted to install the boot-floppies package but it doesn't seem to
work.

When I use the testing version I get this:

     # apt-get -t testing install boot-floppies
     Reading Package Lists... Done
     Building Dependency Tree... Done
     Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
     requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
     distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
     or been moved out of Incoming.

     Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
     the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
     that package should be filed.
     The following information may help to resolve the situation:

     Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
       boot-floppies: Depends: cslatex but it is not going to be installed
                      Depends: cspsfonts but it is not going to be installed
     E: Sorry, broken packages


When I use stable I get this:

     # apt-get -t stable install boot-floppies 
     Reading Package Lists... Done
     Building Dependency Tree... Done

     Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
       boot-floppies: Depends: glibc-pic
                      Depends: slang1-pic but it is not going to be installed
                      Depends: libnewt-dev
                      Depends: gettext but it is not going to be installed
                      Depends: pointerize but it is not going to be installed
     E: Sorry, broken packages


My question is: is this a bug? Should I report it?

I can't find any live bug that refers to the boot-floppies.


Sorry if this is a dumb question.
