    Patching GTK. Breaks existing package gtk2-engines-pixbuf

    I'm trying to create a patched build of gtk, which fixes an annoying bug with wacom&xinerama.

    I've created a .deb file (unsigned), and want to install that. But then this is what I get:
    Breaks existing package gtk2-engines-pixbuf

    Here are the steps I followed:
    Installed scripts and compiler that are needed
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install build-essential devscripts
    installed dependencies for gtk package
    Code:
    sudo apt-get build-dep gtk+2.0
    made a directory for sources, and downloaded the source of the gtk package
    Code:
    cd ~/src
    sudo apt-get source gtk+2.0
    applied a change in the lines of the patch. for me it was replacing the lines
    Code:
          x_scale = gdk_screen_get_width (gdk_drawable_get_screen (window)) / device_width;
          y_scale = gdk_screen_get_height (gdk_drawable_get_screen (window)) / device_height;
    
          x_offset = - impl_window->input_window->root_x - priv->abs_x;
          y_offset = - impl_window->input_window->root_y - priv->abs_y;
    by these lines:
    Code:
    int core_pointer_x, core_pointer_y, cur_monitor;
          GdkRectangle mon_geometry;
          GdkScreen *cur_screen;
          gdk_display_get_pointer(gdk_drawable_get_display(window),
    			      &cur_screen,&core_pointer_x,&core_pointer_y,0);
          cur_monitor= gdk_screen_get_monitor_at_point(cur_screen,
    						   core_pointer_x,
    						   core_pointer_y);
          gdk_screen_get_monitor_geometry(cur_screen,cur_monitor,&mon_geometry);
          x_scale = mon_geometry.width / device_width;
          y_scale = mon_geometry.height / device_height;
          x_offset = mon_geometry.x - impl_window->input_window->root_x;
          y_offset = mon_geometry.y - impl_window->input_window->root_y;
    Committed the changes to the package and added a message describing the change to the changelog of the package
    Code:
    sudo dpkg-source --commit
    sudo debuild -i -us -uc -b
    Finally double-clicked the libgtk2.0-0_2.24.10-0ubuntu7_amd64.deb file to install it. THat gave the error message (see image)
