seems to me that this is a version mismatch problem between the
gnome-db/libgda binaries and oaf.
I would suggest you that you get the non-yet-released 0.2.3 version
sources, and generate the RPMs yourself. This is quite easy to do. You
can find the tarball at:

ftp://ftp.gnome-db.org/pub/gnome-db/sources/0.2.3/

RPM packages will be ready soon, as soon as we make the final release
(today or tomorrow).

cheers
