 Hello!,

 some of those and then when I tried to install the first one rep-gtk , it
 said that it depended on libglib1.2.6 but libglib1.2.6 is not in the stable
 distribution but is instead in the unstable. Can I use those packages in
 unstable dists to slink?

 Furthermore, when i checked libglib1.2.6, it too depends on other packages
 as well, and it seems like it's never ending. can somebody please give me a
 link on where I can get more information on how to do this properly?


Not sure if it will solve _all_ your dependecy problems, but you may want to 
check
www.debian.org/~vincent
there are updates for gnome (gtk, imlib, glib) that are apt-able. Worth a shot.
