Florian, thank you very much for the help. The output of these two 
commands are:

marcelo@nostromo2:~$ apt-cache policy libstlport4.6c2
libstlport4.6c2:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: (none)
  Version table:
     4.6.2-3 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

marcelo@nostromo2:~$ aptitude install -sD libstlport4.6c2

No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.

Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
Would download/install/remove packages.

It seems that apt can't find any candidate to install?
