era,
Download the (Your Architecture).deb from here :

Another workaround, enabling repositories. I can see it listed in my system:
re2c:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.12.1-1build1
Version table:
0.12.1-1build1 0
500 http://
Take a look at http://
With Regards,

I can see those packages in http://

era,
sudo apt-get update should have done the job.
Try again and see if it works.

I've tried a number of times and it does not change the outcome.
I'm wondering what other packages might be missing and where I should start looking.
Somehow something had removed "main" from my sources.list! Duhh, No problem with this particular package; problem solved (although I'd still like to understand how that could happen).
