Library dependency problem with sphirewall-core and libboost

Question

I am facing problems with library dependencies when trying to install sphirewall-core. Is there any way to solve this or to install that dependencies?

These are the steps I followed:

$ sudo apt-get install sphirewall-core
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:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 sphirewall-core : Depends: libboost-random1.49.0 (>= 1.49.0-1) but it is not installable
                   Depends: libboost-regex1.49.0 (>= 1.49.0-1) but it is not installable
                   Depends: libboost-serialization1.49.0 (>= 1.49.0-1) but it is not installable
                   Depends: libboost-system1.49.0 (>= 1.49.0-1) but it is not installable
                   Depends: libboost-thread1.49.0 (>= 1.49.0-1) but it is not installable
