synaptic does not resolve any dependencies, it is using apt underneath.

No, probably your apt's sources.list is broken/incomplete or one of the
apt repositories you are using is broken.

amule is not part of FC nor FE, so you must be using another repository.
Either this repository is broken, this repository is incomplete or your
apt setup is broken.
