I only added the packages, that [readanysf~] depending on, which is
libgemrlin-avdec1 and libgavl1. gmerlin is a completely different
package, which is not part of my PPA.

Only now I realized, that Gem indeed checks for libgmerlin-avdec1 (and
not for gmerlin, libgmerlin or the like). Since this package is not part
of the main distro, 'sudo aptitude install libgmerlin-avdec-dev ' should
install it. If your aptitude still cannot find it, make sure, that this
line:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/reduzierer/rdz-pd-extra+deps/ubuntu lucid main

is part of your /etc/apt/sources.list. If this still isn't the reason
for this PPA not showing up in your aptitude, then I don't know, what
could be wrong.
