As others already pointed out, the package has been removed from the 
repos but I bet it is still available at the snapshot:

http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20080513T000000Z/pool/main/g/gtkdialog/gtkdialog_0.7.20-4_i386.deb

I use "zenity" to build dialogs in GNOME, not sure if this will suit to 
your needs. Otherwise, maybe you can compile the package from upstream 
sources.
