I only had a fast look on it, but «libcomplearn0» installs fine, and «complearn-gui» doesn't require any particular version. Also, aptitude just says there are 0 packages to install and doesn't do anything if I try to install «complearn-gui». Strange...

It looks like the problem is that libcomplearn0 conflicts with complearn-gui:

$ apt-cache depends libcomplearn0
libcomplearn0
  Depends: libbz2-1.0
  Depends: libc6
