problems upgrading to 2.2r4



Hi,
	I am having difficulties upgrading to version 2.2r4.
I ran
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -u dist-upgrade

and the following error keeps coming up :
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  python-gnome: Depends: libglade-gnome0 but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

when I try to install libglade-gnome0 I always
get the following error:
$ apt-get install libglade-gnome0
Preparing to replace libc6-dev 2.1.3-13 (using
.../libc6-dev_2.1.3-19_i386.deb) ...

dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute post-installation script: Permission

dpkg: error while cleaning up:

even if I try not to install python-gnome (using dselect for example) or
run
$ dpkg -f install
I always get similar errors (Permission denied)

$ dpkg --remove --pending
(Reading database ... 18378 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing tk8.2 ...

I tried the clean up options (clean and autoclean) and several other
repair options with dpkg without any success. I also checked the Debian
mailing list. . .

Any ideas ?

Thanks a lot.
