Recently I've been trying to install the libgtk2.0-dev package (on my _sarge_ distro) with apt. This has not been possible, giving the errormessage beow:

-------------APT-GET INSTALL libgtk2.0-dev---------------------------------
# apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libpango1.0-dev (>= 1.4.0-3) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libx11-dev but it is not going to be installed or
                          xlibs-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages



Checking with synaptics function "Status"->"Installed(local and obsolete)", I find that one package has foreign origin:
(showing output as shown in synaptic)

libgcc1     1:4.0-0pre6ubuntu7        1:4.0-0pre6ubuntu7       GCC support library

At first I tried to reinstall this package to get the correct version (sarge version), using 'apt-get install' and 'apt-get --reinstall' wich did not work. Then I tried to remove this package, using 'apt-get remove' but this would most likely crash my system completly...  All the outputs are shown in the bottom of this mail.

What can I do to solve the dependecies issue, and/or fix the version mismatch made by libgcc1, and be able to install libgtk2.0-dev??

Distro: Sarge
Kernel: 2.4.27-2-686 (stock)

In great need for advice,
cheers
Vegard
