It's fine, when you run the command you should get the list of all the
other packages it would try to install.  Cut and paste them and do an
apt-get install (giant list of packages here, without the parathesis).
 The lack of that package should not prevent you from building myth
(It *might* prevent building it with the openchrome XVMC support, but
unless you've got a VIA graphics card and intend to use it with XVMC
(very very few people) it shouldn't matter at all).
