I've installed the new Debian package recently and have had a few problems
but the install wasn't one of them.

Damian is probably right, you probably need one of the packages you haven't
updated.

Try an apt-get update followed by apt-get upgrade (not dist-upgrade unless
you want to move up a distro)

Also, unless your on dialup I'd run apt-get clean to purge the downloaded
package, and then re-download it, in case the package has been corrupted in
any way.
