Hi,
Don't use apt for this. Compile it yourself you will be happier. If
you want to take the easy route you won't even have to RTFM, just run
'debian/rules' in the source directory (although i would recommend
reading the install guide).
Good luck,

Hey,
What are you using as a font name? You just use any font that X
recognizes (use xfontsel to get the font-name). With aterm, i use the
font "-ormaxx-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*". I'm guessing you were just
trying something like -fn "courier"? xfontsel will be your friend.
