What release of Debian are you using? Stable (squeeze) or Testing (wheezy)?
I'm running Debian Testing and the Cherokee 1.2 packages from unstable
(Sid) and everything seems to be working fine. It's possible that the
dependencies in stable are too old for Cherokee 1.2, but I'm not too sure.

Testing is still stable enough for a server, I've been running it for years
with no issues. If this is a new server you're trying out Cherokee on, you
could try upgrading to Debian testing, which should give you some newer
packages. You can do that by editing /etc/apt/sources.list and changing all
instances of "stable" to "testing". Then do "apt-get update && apt-get
dist-upgrade".
