Describe the bug
Installing Scidavis 2.4.1-1 via repository doesn't work because of dependency problems.
Installing the offered deb package directly works but shows a different missing dependency.

To Reproduce
Add the repository and then

apt install scidavis
[...]
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 scidavis : Depends: libgsl23 (>= 2.5) but it is not installable
            Depends: libpython3.8 (>= 3.8.2) but it is not installable

On Debian 11 libpython3.9 is installed, libpython3.8 cannot be installed (but shouldn't be necessary anyways as 3.9 is higher):

dpkg -l | grep libpython
ii  libpython3.9-dev:amd64

apt install libpython3.8
[...]
E: Package 'libpython3.8' has no installation candidate

and for libgsl23:

apt install libgsl23
[...]
Package libgsl23 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[...]
However the following packages replace it:
libgslcblas0

apt install libgslcblas0
[...]
libgslcblas0 is already the newest version (2.6+dfsg-2).

However when I install the deb package directly, the only missing dependency is libmuparser2v5:

dpkg -i scidavis_2.4.1-1_amd64.deb
[...]
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of scidavis:
 scidavis depends on libmuparser2v5 (>= 2.2.6.1+dfsg); however:
  Package libmuparser2v5 is not installed.

After installing libmuparser2v5 Scidavis is usable.

So if you could tweak the dependencies, that would be great thing.

Thanks in advance!
