when I run this w/o the -s and with proper package names it gives the same 
errors I posted in my first message.

what does a line like:

libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.4.2-1) but 2.2.3-1 is to be installed

mean ?

It seems to mean that libglib2.0-dev depends on libglib2.0-0/2.4.2-1

When I try to run it as is it says it wants to d/l 360MB of archives. I 
won't go there with this modem.

HOW does one get a devel package that matches an existing library set ?
