groaster - missing libgtkmm



I've been using linux less than a week.
Last night I wanted to burn a CD, I thought
a front end to cdrecord would be nice.
I went after groaster_0.20000513.2.deb, an
unstable package.

everything was going cool till it got to
libgtkmm, it was listed on the dependency page,
but said it was not available.  

Is there a way around this or have I hit the
cutting edge here?

Also, while installing I noticed it replaced libc6.
I had a funny feeling like I was back in DOS world,
where every app you install wants to overwrite a
common dll file.  Is there a danger I can break
the system (running gnome)?

this happened to me in FreeBSD 3.1 a few years ago.
All color photos I viewed in netscape came out 
colorized.  I put up with it for a long time, then
wiped the disk and installed Linux.
