I don't know if this is the problem, but there are two packages which provide libXt --- I think!!! There is xlib6g which is the usual one that is installed --- it is for libc6. Then there is xlib6 (without the g) which is found in section "oldlibs" and is for libc5. Now I could be wrong, but I think Matlab might be libc5 based, in which case you will need to install xlib6. (You can have both xlib6g and xlib6 installed I believe.) I'm no expert, so no guarentees this will work, but it's the best I can think of.
