gtk-config is from libgtk1.x which is quite old, and no longer found in
any current Debian releases (not even squeeze or wheezy). Near as I can
tell from my limited searching, the last Debian release to have this
package was Debian 5.x (lenny).
Building this program might be challenging. Perhaps you can find a
replacement. Based on its name, I would guess it's a sibling to
things like zenity.
