Re: AGHHHH! I ruined Linux!
You're trying to get GTK+ from potato, correct?
You'll probably have to upgrade all of your major libs to the potato
versions...
I would try this:
make sure you have frozen (potato) in your /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian frozen main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian frozen main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US frozen/non-US main contrib non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US frozen/non-US main contrib non-free
then:
apt-get update
apt-get -f install libc6
you should then have a working system, and you can:
apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev
-brad
