Bug Description

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:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libgio-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
joachim@madkeunnen:~$

also, it seems that the current glib in hardy already ships with gio built-in. shouldn't gio-standalone be removed?

Well it should be libgio-2.0/libgio2.0-dev (if it's not already); it follows the naming pattern of the rest of GLib in this sense. But yes, gio-standalone should probably die, and any applications that currently depend on it should move to glib-gio very soon (very few exist as far as I know).
