I use unstable, which may be why I'm having problems. I know, I know. Unstable means just that, Unstable. So it may very well be my bad. Anyway, I have tried it both ways. By installing evolution, gtkhtml was installed. Then, when upgrading, gtkhtml1.1 fails. I also tried installing gtkhtml1.1 first, before I install anything else. But then when I tried installing GNOME (I think. It could have been something else), gtkhtml wouldn't install. In any case, I'll stick with 1.0.7 for now.
