"E: Broken packages" with 2.8

[Matthias.Lechner at med.uni-muenchen.de]

hi there!

I downloaded the package (2.8.1) from sourceforge, but I'm still getting
this error-message...
the very bad thing is that this problem still occurs, if i downgrade to
2.6.5. it seems that there are really broken packages somewhere.
any ideas?
thanks in advance
mat.
