Yes, that's right.  I don't know of any good way to fix the problem with 
binary packages.   

What I would suggest is trying to build it yourself starting from the Debian 
source package.  The source package is *NOT* the .deb file, rather it is a 
couple of tarballs   The easiest option is likely to take it from the 
packaging git repository: git://anonscm.debian.org/debian-med/castxml.git

With that, I'd install the package devscripts and then try to build it by:

	cd castxml
	debuild -b

You will have to install the build-dependencies.  If those aren't available on 
your system, it's going to become more complicated.  

Another alternative is to set up a chroot with a newer distribution -- e.g. 
Debian "unstable" -- where you can just apt-get castxml.

Hope this helps,
-Steve
