These are the relevant packages IMHO ; strange that still gtkglarea is not 
recognized.

Please go at this page:

 	http://packages.debian.org/stable/libs/gtkglarea5

At the bottom of the page there is a link where you can download the 
original source package [gtkglarea_1.2.3.orig.tar.gz].

I think the "5" is just a number that relates on packaging, it's not a 
real version number.
