Description: The Bonobo Configuration System for GNOME2
 The Bonobo Configuration System (BCS) consists of several parts. An API
to
 access configuration data, a database to store configuration values in
XML
 format and a system to visualise and edit configuration data.
 The whole system is built on top of bonobo and ORBit (CORBA)

dunadan:/home/kerka# apt-get -u -t experimental install bonobo-config
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... 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.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  bonobo-config: Depends: libglib1.3-15 (>= 1.3.15) but it is not
installable
E: Sorry, broken packages

My two questions:
1. where can I find missing packages?
2. is anywhere list of all needed packages?

I have gnome-control-center2 installed:
dunadan:/home/kerka# dpkg -l gnome-control-center*
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold

Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:
uppercase=bad)
||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
pn  gnome-control- <none>         (no description available)
un  gnome-control- <none>         (no description available)
ii  gnome-control- 2.0.1.1-1      The GNOME Control Center for GNOME 2
.
BUT when I run gnome 2 I can't find it in menu, but i can run it from
terminal. I must have something missing ...
Thanks for zour help, folks ...
