There seems to be a problem in the call to pm.GetArchives() in site-
packages/apt/cache.py

// /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/cache.py --- (line 158)

        try:
            # this may as well throw a SystemError exception
            if not pm.GetArchives(fetcher, self._list, self._records):
                return False
            # now run the fetcher, throw exception if something fails to be
            # fetched
            return self._runFetcher(fetcher) 

//

This package has three dependancies, and a licence agreement that needs
to be signed.

installing with dpkg -i worked after sorting the package manager, and 
installing the three dependencys with 
# apt-get install libxalan110 libidl0 libxerces27

The package itself seems to be OK.
