 Yes, and it's perfectly valid.

 You're not supposed to manage packages with "dpkg" directly, use a
 package manager such as apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, or dselect.

 Did you use the same method to install Gtk in #296211?

 I'm closing this bug (#296206), if you used a package manager to
 upgrade your system, please reopen the bug (or mail me).
