Could you post the output of the command above? Was it really
"atrpms-synaptic" you tried to install?

output is not saved: it was: apt-get: command not found, so the problem
should be before, in executing the 2 above apt-gets.<br>
the statement was: apt-get install

In general apt warns you with bug red letters, if you are about to
remove packages from the list in /etc/apt/rpmpriorities, which
includes apt. Did you enter any "Yes, do as I say" confirmations?

i only said Yes to the extra packages to be installed<br>

MythTV works on Debian just as well, but you would not follow Jarod's
guide. Check the mythtv documenation for further steps/guides required
on Debian.
