Is your system up to date? When was the last time you did a dist-upgrade?

(edit) Wait, that is an ancient Squeeze package. Never mind. Good luck; maybe someone else has a clue.

The latest release of kazehakase is already 5 years old, and there's a good reason why they removed it from the repos: it won't build on Sid anymore. You can try yourself using the sources: http://sourceforge.jp/projects/kazehakase/releases/

If you want to earn extra beard points, we got this one in the repos:

^ yup

Supposed to be in sid, with debports, what ever that is.
Squeeze is LTS now, so not a problem to run that old girl.

get statler out and add the LTS repo...

Debports are those architectures that are not supported (yet/anymore) - for kazehakase it is m68k and unofficial. See more here: http://www.ports.debian.org/

@op, without looking into the details, IMO forget kazehakase:

yeah - go for oldstable. LTS

[twoion]

^ jd is awesome, thanks, I didn't know this one :)

[delphys]

Thank you for all your advices !!

But not sure where I can find the stable LTS version ..

[wuxmedia]

1) install stable, (repos should still be ok)
2) read this:
https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Using
3) profit..

I'd just like to point out that the company I work for is sponsoring LTS. (as we run a fair amount of oldstable) 8)
