1) mozilla is virtually indistinguishable from netscape 6 (in fact, early versions of netscape6 installed as mozilla plus a link to the name netscape
2) Netscape 4 is referred to by its minor number--I did a dpkg -l|grep netscape and got ii netscape 4.75-2 Meta package that depends on other packages ii netscape-base- 4.75-2 Popular World-Wide-Web browser software (bas ii netscape-base- 4.75-2 4.75 base support for netscape ii netscape-java- 4.75-2 Netscape Java support for version 4.75 apt-get install netscape should do the trick, IIRC the actual binaries in my case were in the communicator packages: ii communicator 4.75-2 Meta package that depends on other packages ii communicator-b 4.75-2 Communicator base support for version 4.75 ii communicator-s 4.75-2 Netscape Communicator 4.75 (static Motif) There's also the navigator packages if you really don't want all the cruft: I took it all b/c my GF was complaining that I didn't have netscape on my machine (I use konqueror and mozilla) and I just didn't want to be bothered with the issue any more. apt-get install navigator should do the trick 3) It looks as if there is no netscape 6 package ATM--if it's that important to you, submit a wishlist but to the netscape maintainer or wnpp, otherwise, just use mozilla and netscape4. Perhaps you could apt-get install mozilla and install the netscape6 from their website, since they're so similar that if you have the dependencies for one, you will have the dependencies for the other. HTH and sorry I couldn't do better...
