It's not that its not installable, its just that if you don't know what you are doing, or won't take the time to understand the ramifications of your actions, then its just better left alone.
You can very posibly damage your current Debian system if you just willy nilly start adding repos that are not native to your Debian system.
My suggestion if you are Hell-bent on installing that app: switch to ubuntu. This way at least the repo will be somewhat compatible and you'll be using the OS the repo was intended for.

I wish to install on my Debian GNU/Linux testing/sid system theCorrect.
SchoolTool 2.0: http://book.schooltool.org/install-2_0.html
I realise that that I can't follow steps:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:schooltool-owners/dev
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install schooltool
because on debian there isn't such command:
add-apt-repository
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:schooltool-owners/devDoesn't fit the pattern of other lines, does it? Try
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found
however if I edit my sources.list:
deb-src ppa:schooltool-owners/dev
http://ppa.launchpad.net/schooltool-owners/
in a browser and go from there to get a line which is not malformed.
Downloaded the
http://blog.anantshri.info/content/uploads/2010/09/add-apt-repository.sh.txt
file.
Edited it to correspond the newest version of Ubuntu:
echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/$ppa_name/ubuntu precise main" [snip]
In this line I replaced the word 'lucid' with 'precise'.
Copied this file to /usr/sbin.
Set up it's permissions so I have now:
$ ls -l /usr/sbin/add-apt-repository
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 723 aug 18 10:43 /usr/sbin/add-apt-repository
Run the script:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:schooltool-owners/dev
schooltool-owners/dev

So, SchoolTool 2.0 is not installable on Debian testing/sid?
There is no reason why it shouldn't be (in theory).
- You can try using apt-get instead of aptitude. Sometimes it allows
packages to be installed that aptitude rejects.
$ sudo apt-get install schooltool
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

- You can try installing the packages that aptitude is complaining
about before trying to install schooltool.
Tried that too and installed the installable packages but can't
installed those virtual packages only.
I get again message:

- You can try answering N to the "accept this solution" question, in
which case aptitude will usually present you with another solution.
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] n
*** No more solutions available ***
So, SchoolTool 2.0 is not installable on Debian testing/sid?
