What packages have you got on hold?


None that I'm aware of. That message disappears if I try to install
anything else after I run an apt-get -f install

Ummmmmm, OK.


Can anybody tell me how I can get compatible versions of these two files?

Have you a 3rd party repository in your /etc/apt/sources.list file?

I've got this:
root@tal:~# apt-cache policy libgtkglext1
libgtkglext1:
   Installed: (none)
   Candidate: 1.2.0-2
   Version table:
      1.2.0-2 0
         990 http://ftp.nz.debian.org/debian/ wheezy/main i386 Packages



I have three third party repositories - one for Lazarus, one for
VirtualBox, and the unofficial Debian multimedia repository.

brian@brian:~$ apt-cache policy libgtkglext1
libgtkglext1:
   Installed: 1.2.0-3
   Candidate: 1.2.0-3
   Version table:
  *** 1.2.0-3 0
         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

So, this one is already installed, but it has not come from a known
repository.

      1.2.0-2 0
  500 http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages

So this is the one you want.

I'd purge the current libgtkglext1 (1.2.0-3):
root@tal:~# dpkg --purge libgtkglext1

Then I'd:
root@tal:~# apt-cache policy libgtkglext1
again just to make sure the candidate version is 1.2.0-2

Then if so:
root@tal:~# apt-get install libgtkglext1

else, I'd want to see your "/etc/apt/sources.list" file.

Let us know how it goes.


Yep, that sorted it, the whole thing now builds correctly. Thanks for the assistance.

Brian.
