Those packages have dependencies that are unfulfilled. apt is the tool that 
takes care of automatically fulfilling dependencies for you. So after 
installing those, run 'apt-get upgrade' and it will pull in the 
dependencies.

Maybe Jeff could make his DCC stuff a proper apt repository so that in the 
future people can just point apt at it and apt-get install what they want 
and it will all just work?
