Gnome Died with Debian Slink

[Chris Wood <cwood xmission com>]

System: Debian 2.x Slink, X-windows, Gnome .30, these are slink based
packages.

I let dselect upgrade my x-windows (slink).  Now, x-windows and gnome
are dead.

I uninstalled gnome, uninstalled x-windows, reinstalled x-windows and
reinstalled gnome.  I can get x-windows running using xinit (but not
startx) but gnome is dead.  

Previously gnome gave some errors about lib*.so.2 and I had lib*.so.3
so I created a link for the files it was complaining about.  Still no
luck.

I'm stumped.  Any ideas?
