Problem installing xbmc - madcat - 2009-11-07

Hi, I'm new using Ubuntu so bear with me. I've installed Ubuntu 9.04 and I was trying to install xbmc by following guides. However, I got an error during installation:

Depends: xbmc-common but it is not going to be installed
Depends: xbmc-skin-pm3 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: xbmc-pm3 but it is not going to be installed

How do I solve this problem?

you're missing libass

Code:
wget https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/jaunty-ppa/+files/libass-dev_0.9.6-1xbmc1_i386.deb

wget https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/jaunty-ppa/+files/libass3_0.9.6-1xbmc1_i386.deb

sudo dpkg -i libass-dev_0.9.6-1xbmc1_i386.deb

sudo dpkg -i libass3_0.9.6-1xbmc1_i386.deb

should fix it, altho i did have another dependency issue too
