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.
