Etch dependency failures

[David Jarvie <lists@astrojar.org.uk>]

I'm running Etch. For a few weeks now, whenever I do my regular (more than 
once a week) 'aptitude dist-upgrade', I get messages about unmet 
dependencies. The original ones were about libpaper1 and libpaper-utils, but 
in the last week or so more have started appearing each time. I'm surprised 
that these haven't been fixed quickly. Does anybody know what is the reason 
for these errors?

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libpaperg: Depends: libpaper1 (= 1.1.14-3) but 1.1.14-5 is to be installed.
             Depends: libpaper-utils (= 1.1.14-3) but 1.1.14-5 is to be 
installed.
  python2.3-glade2: Depends: python2.3-gtk2 (= 2.6.3-2) but 2.8.2-3 is 
installed.
  dbus-glib-1: Depends: dbus-1 (>= 0.23.4) but it is not installable
  libhal0: Depends: dbus-1 (>= 0.23.4) but it is not installable
  libhal-storage0: Depends: dbus-1 (>= 0.23.4) but it is not installable
  dbus-qt-1-dev: Depends: dbus-qt-1c2 (= 0.23.4-8) but it is not installable
                 Depends: dbus-1-dev (= 0.23.4-8) but it is not installable
