Because you're using Testing and Testing is going through some major
changes right now. If you can't handle broken applications, use
Debian stable (Sarge). The fact that you said you have a mixture of
Gnome 2.8 and 2.10 on your machine is reason enough for this kind of
breakage.
Don't be hostile to the people that are trying to help you and you might
be surprised just how much they can help you. :-) And remember, we don't
get paid for helping, the same as you aren't paying for the help you're
getting. :-)
HTH & HAND,
Jacob
