To get Index Data's Debian repository in your
/etc/apt/sources list
see http:
//ftp.indexdata.dk/pub/zebra/debian/README

and do a

sudo apt-get update                  (did you forget this
one??)
apt-cache policy libyaz-dev     (should show libyaz-dev)
sudo apt-get install libyaz-dev yaz

The key stuff is just to convince apt-get that the package
is trusted, 
but you can live without.
