When I try to add these, with a space before the http part, in the 
packet source manager, or whatever that's called in English, they're all 
rejected, so I hope that someone can find a better way.

On reading that most systems are only set up to download binary 
packages, I realized that the packet source manager that I have in LMDE 
4 (Linux Mint Debian Edition) has a switch to include sources too, and 
when I set that, I can install the dependencies.

I have not tested this on Debian itself, nor on Ubuntu based versions of 
Mint.

Regards,

Enno
