What is state of package installed despite dependencies?

[Ross Boylan <RossBoylan@stanfordalumni.org>]

I tried a brute force approach to getting the unstable package for
gtoaster; I downloaded the deb and did a dpkg -i.  I figured if there
were missing prerequisites, it would not install.

I got lots of errors about missing files of the appropriate version,
but I seem to be running the new code when I start gtoaster.

Can anyone tell me what state things are in?  Specifically, do I need
to remove the current install and then reinstall the woody-appropriate
package?  

Here's my terminal transcript.  When I ran gtoaster the new version
started up with a panel telling me about its new abilities and some
modifications it was making to other files.
