In another post in a thread not far away, danahyatt was heard to say:
Just got an notice to download new version from Access. Tried the install and libraries are missing so no update this time. I wrote to support and the webmaster wrote back and told me to update my maemo os. That has been flashed for months already. I will stay with the old beta of Garnet VM for now.
I ran into the same issue while I was trying to install GVM beta 3. It wasn't really missing libs; it was versions lower than required:

Code:
root@n810 .documents # apt-get check garnet-vm_1.0.2b_ITOS2008.deb
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 garnet-vm: Depends: libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.5) but 2.2.1-1osso3 is installed
 Depends: libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.12.12-1osso10) but 2.12.12-1osso9 is installed
 Depends: libhildonfm2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but 1:1.9.49 is installed
 Depends: libosso1 (>= 2.16) but 2.13-1.1fix is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
I'm guessing this is a chinook/diablo issue because I could not find the above versions in the repositories.

So, I forced the dependencies:
Code:
dpkg -i --force-depends garnet-vm_1.0.2b_ITOS2008.deb
That seemed to work for me. Of course the normal warnings apply. Do not stand above this step..., point away from face..., no user serviceable parts inside, contents under pressure..., and so on.
