Bug#712025: libgtk2.0-0:i386 is uninstallable, due to dependency issues

[Miah Gregory]

Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.24.18-1
Severity: important

Hi,

I need libgtk2.0-0:i386 installed for the stand alone flash player, but cannot
install it from unstable

Approx 1-2 weeks ago, this package was correctly installed and working, however
since then, following a dist-upgrade, the package was removed and cannot be
reinstalled.

I have tried installing the package, and it's dependencies individually, but to
no avail.

Output from installation attempt:

apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
Reading package lists... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libgtk2.0-0:i386 : Depends: libcups2:i386 (>= 1.4.0) but it is not going to be
installed
                    Depends: libgssapi-krb5-2:i386 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2) but it is
not going to be installed
                    Depends: libk5crypto3:i386 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2) but it is not
going to be installed
                    Depends: libkrb5-3:i386 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2) but it is not going
to be installed
Recommends: hicolor-icon-theme:i386 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The final error is a little odd; as best I can tell, I have no held packages.

Expected outcome was successful package installation.
