If you run:

sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf

Then retry, it is smooth. I suggest you add this as a dep so it gets automagically installed.

完整安装：

shawn@shawn-ThinkPad-T410:~$ sudo apt-get install emacs23

shawn@shawn-ThinkPad-T410:~$ sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf 

还有另一个地方也给出了这个问题的解决办法：
