Make sure that "non-free" is in your /etc/apt/sources.list. Eg:

   deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main non-free

See https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList for more info.

Then run apt-get update.

And consider adding a comment to one of the several Debian bug reports
that exist about this issue, eg
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=685933
to encourage them to improve the way they handle this, which has been
confusing Emacs users on Debian for 7+ years now.
