Installation of the unstable version of this package on lenny gives
the following. As you can see apt-get -f install does not fix it. I'm
guessing the dependencies may need tightening or something.
You need to backport the package rather than try to install sid version as-is
in lenny. This is usually done by means of the following:
1. add a deb-src line targeting sid
2. apt-get update
3. apt-get build-dep pgloader
4. apt-get source -b pgloader
5. sudo dpkg -i ../pgloader*deb
Er, my point is that this is a sign that your dependencies are wrong (to
be precise, not tight enough), probably python-support. I've seen such
errors before. Installation should not fail in this manner - that is, if
the dependencies are satisfied, installation should succeed. Failure is
not unexpected, but I would expect it to occur with an unsatisfied
dependencies error. I suggest checking and fixing your dependencies.
