Your elaboration on dependencies between packages is correct. I think
Milan only mention that 3.10 is ancient to explain why debug packages
for gtkhtml are also of interest, as 3.10 still depended on gtkhtml.

Installing the corresponding debug packages is welcome.

Next step is to get a stacktrace in gdb. A more verbose how-to is here:
