GTK+Extra is dead - this FTBFS still has not been fixed. GPSim does not need it
anymore - the Debian package has dropped the dependency.
GTK+Extra 2.1.2 is broken and incompatible with GTK 2.18, (as evidenced by this
bug) and GTK+Extra 2 is also dead. It is a very bad idea to allow GTK+Extra
back into Debian or Ubuntu. It took me nearly a year to get rid of the previous
version.
There is no version of GTK-Extra3 that is compatible with the upcoming GTK3.0.
I was the Debian maintainer for gtk+extra2, I know the package well, I know the
upstream and I know that upstream is dead and has not fixed the FTBFS bug.
gtk+extra simply abuses the GTK API and there is no fix for this error.
If the lack of gtk+extra is such a problem, take the advice of the GTK
maintainers and upstream and patch GPSim with the GOffice spreadsheet support
used by Gnumeric, available in libgoffice.
THAT is the correct solution for GPSim GUI.
