foxtrotgps is simple and easy to use.

navit is much more flexible but has a much steeper learning curve.

Both are in Debian repos. Both require gpsd.

Does anybody read signatures any more?

With such ancient dependencies, I wouldn't even try to run it as it seems
quite unlikely that the versions available in a current Debian repo will
still be able to run it. Or at least try to compile all those dependencies
from source. Doing that in a VM of a much older Debian version may be
easier as depending on how many dependencies you'd need to compile to even
get these, you may have at least some already available. And "Last Update:
2013-04-26" is an overstatement. Something may have changes back then, but
the files on Sourceforge haven't been touched since 2009. Under these
circumstances, I wouldn't even bother trying to get such ancient software
up and running. Not with so many alternatives listed in the OpenStreetMap
Wiki [2].

Start by running "file gosm".

If this is an i386 program, then yes.  You'll want to enable i386
multi-arch support (there's a wiki page with basic steps), and then
install whatever i386 libraries are needed.  "ldd" can help you figure
those out.
