Help!! gdm installation problem

[<debian@arabia.com>]

Hi,
	 I have a debian potato 2.2 on Pentium-II 333 Mhz, 192 MB RAM. I have
Xfree86 3.3.6 installed using xdm. Today I attempted to install gdm
(gdm_2.0-0.beta4.9.deb), and I got the following error
      dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gdm:
      gdm depends on locales; however:
      Package locales is not configured yet.
      dpkg: error processing gdm (--configure):
      dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
      Errors were encountered while processing:  gdm

Now when I tried to configure locales(version 2.1.3-13), using 
       "dpkg --configure locales" 
I got the following error message
  dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of locales:
  locales depends on libc6 (= 2.1.3-13); however:
   Version of libc6 on system is 2.2.3-4.
  dpkg: error processing locales (--install):
  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
   Errors were encountered while processing:  locales
    
   Now I would like to keep the existing libc(=2.2.3-4) package, and not
remove it and install libc6(2.1.3-13) as many of my programs depend on
it. So here is my query
     What should I do to get locales configured on my system?

Thanks in advance
Have a nice day
