How do I install my HP Deskjet500 under linux

Using a printer cable :-) Seriously though, install the magicfilter
package. It is fairly easy to set up, and allows you to print all kinds of
files using via the lpr command.

You need to be in the top level directory of the kernel source to run make

There's nothing strange about it. Glimpse does not meet the Debian Free
Software Guidelines (IIRC, because the license permits non-commercial use
only).

 I wonder what else I'm missing.

The contents of the FTP site's non-free section, and the contents of the
non-US site.

 Then I tried to dpkg --configure libpam0g-util, it told me this depends on
 libpam0g, and (of course) it had not been configured yet, so failed again.

It's a cyclic dependency, so it only gets resolved if you configure both
simultaneously:
dpkg --configure libpam0g libpam0g-utils
