This is the error i got i first tried to install through package installer but when i click on install it just displays something and closes fast that i can't see anything so i used this command from information button in package installer i got this error is there any chance to fix this error
Recent Versions of budgie no longer need gnome tweak tool as budgie now has its own budgie settings tool. I'm not sure if the budgie version compatible with Debian stretch has been updated to at least that version. Could you search for this in synaptic?
Or try installing with MXPI. [Oops. Ignore this line]

You should never, ever use PPA's with anything other than Ubuntu, or a system that is based on Ubuntu. Even then, there are some risks.
Also, in my experience, if you want to experiment with a desktop that is not the one the developers used, you need to do so from a fresh install, fulyl updated.

when I get errors like that, I keep checking the failed depends manually until I find a likely culprit. The dependency chains can be long. Even a theme deb from the ubuntu ppa could conceivably have a dependency that would prevent installation of a package.
and see what errors you get, and keep drilling down through those errors. maybe you will discover what package is the barrier and be able to remove it.
also, mx-pi creates a log in /var/log/mxpi.log that stores those errors, although in this case its likely the same as you've posted already.
