You didn't say, but I'm assuming that you're installing the plugin
through synaptic too.

I would guess that the plugin you're trying to install is targetted at
the old version of Gimp. So it's a problem with the dependencies of
that plugin package.

The easiest thing to do is raise a bug against the plugin package,
asking for it to support the new Gimp version. Other than that, you'd
have to download the package source and hack the dependencies -- I've
never tried this, so I don't know how easy/hard it is.

Hwyl,
Neil.
