yes, the problem is that OAF (Object Activation Framework) can't find
the gnome-db/libgda's .oaf files. Where have you installed
libgda/gnome-db?

You've got 2 solutions:
* copy $prefix/share/oaf/GNOME*.oaf /usr/share/oaf
* export OAF_INFO_PATH="$prefix/share/oaf:/usr/share/oaf"
(being $prefix the prefix where you installed gnome-db/libgda)

cheers
