Any ideas?
Go to the netscape download page and download netscape-v304-export.x86-unknown-linux-elf.tar.[gz|Z] and put it into /tmp. Then re-run apt-get install netscape. I haven't done that in quite a while but that seems like a very old version. I installed 4.77 when I installed potato. I think some are even using Netscape 6.x. -- Warning, keyboard not found.
