Package: finch
Version: 2.4.1-1+b1
The package info lists the following dependencies:
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.16.0), libgstreamer0.10-0
(>= 0.10.10), libncursesw5 (>= 5.6+20071006-3), libpurple0 (>=
2.4.1-1+b1), libx11-6, libxml2 (>= 2.6.27), pidgin-data (>= 2.4.1),
pidgin-data (<< 2.4.1-z)
So, I manually install the above dependencies:
apt-get install libc6 libglib2.0-0 libgstreamer0.10-0 libncursesw5
libpurple0 libx11-6 libxml2 pidgin-data
It installs about 35MB worth of packages.
So, if the above and their respective dependencies are installed, I
should be able to install finch without further packages. However:
# apt-get install finch

Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
Why does apt want to install all the other packages if the finch dependencies
have already been installed?
