Unable to setup jabber on my VPS at prgmr.com

Question

I'm unable to setup jabber with an apt-get install jabber. I get an error saying that jabber has unmet dependencies, jabberd14.

I tried installing jabberd14 and it gives me a list of errors saying event loop failed/

I tried a apt-get update too, which also dint help resolve this issue.

Am I doing something wrong?

Maybe a bit off-topic, but if you do not have requirements for the jabber server software, have you tried ejabberd instead of jabberd14 ? In my personal opinion it is much better.
