`libgtkglext1-dev` is deprecated and has been removed from recent Debian 
releases. GtkGLExt hasn't been maintained since around 2012 and doesn't support 
GTK+ 3 or later.

First, check if it's still available in your repositories:

```bash
apt-cache search libgtkglext
```

If you actually need `libgtkglext1-dev`, it's likely gone from Debian Trixie. 
Your options are:

**Option 1: Try Debian Bullseye (oldstable)**

```bash
# Add bullseye sources temporarily
echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main" | sudo tee 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/bullseye.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libgtkglext1-dev
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bullseye.list
sudo apt update
```

**Option 2: Build from source**

```bash
sudo apt install libgtk2.0-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libgl1-mesa-dev pangox-compat
git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gtkglext.git
cd gtkglext
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install
```

Note: I'm currently unable to access https://gitlab.gnome.org, which might be 
an issue on my end. You may need to find a mirror.

I have no idea what you are doing, but if possible, consider migrating to 
modern alternatives like GtkGLArea (part of GTK+ 3), Epoxy, SDL2, or GLFW.
