Re: gtk install problems

Peter,

Judging from your email, you've recompiled your entire windowing
system. Doing this on your own without the help of a build solution
could lead to errors. There are quite a few things that could be
wrong. The most likely is that you have two versions of some libraries
installed on your computer and your programs are picking the wrong
version at runtime. Or you could have broken ABI compatibility in your
upgrade for pretty much all the GUI software on your computer.

Deciding which it is would depend on the version you upgraded from,
the version you upgraded to (thats of *all* libraries), as well as
where you decided to install those libraries.

Fixing these problems would really depend on what you've done.

HTH,
Paul Davis

Thank you for the suggestion but honestly I just want to get my system
fixed the way it is right now.  In addition, there may be some kind of
bug in gtk/glib and at the very least there is some poor error
reporting.
