Installing OpenVPN

Love my Bubba2. Has been running perfectly for several years now. Today I was trying to install openvpn server on it but ran into some problems. I was using the guide in the wiki since I'm not a Linux prouser. However, I can not seem to get it working since I'm not meeting several of the dependencies:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
openvpn: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) but 2.3.6.ds1-13etch10 is to be installed
Depends: liblzo2-2 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libpam0g (>= 0.99.7.1) but 0.79-5+etch1 is to be installed
Depends: libpkcs11-helper1 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8g-9) but 0.9.8c-4etch9 is to be installed
Depends: openssl-blacklist (>= 0.4) but it is not going to be installed
I have tried to update these packages as well but no luck. I have run apt-get update, apt-get upgrade etc but nothing. Do I have to add more package repositories?

not sure about this, but I would recommend strongswan or pptp vpn, they are on the wiki.

Found a tip on a different website that worked. Instead of apt-get I used aptitude as root
aptitude install openvpn
This automatically installed all dependencies.
