Woody: can't install libgtk1.2-dev
Hi,
I don't seem to be able to install the libgtk1.2-dev package on my
Woody system.
Here is the output I get:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
madcow:~# apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgtk1.2-dev: Depends: libgtk1.2 (= 1.2.10-9) but 1.2.10-ximian.21 is to be installed
Depends: libglib1.2-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages

My source.list point at
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian woody main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian-non-US woody/non-US main contrib non-free
On a related note, I did install Ximian's GNOME 1.4 release for Potato
(deb http://red-carpet.ximian.com/debian stable main) some time last
year. I then removed it (as far as I understood what I was doing), and
after that I upgraded to Woody.
I'm relatively new to Debian, and this system was orignally a Potato
r2 installation that I have upgraded to Woody over the last year. I
would appreciate any pointers on how to get this resolved (do I need
to write a bug report? How? Or is there some newbie thing I'm
doing....? Why is there a ximian.21 in my libgtk1.2 installation, and
should I get rid of it? How?).
Best regards,
Shyamal
