Anyone else running gtk 2.4.3 yet? I removed all my debian gtk/glib/pango/atk
binaries, recompiled the latest gtk src and installed in /usr/local (on debian).
Apps like devhelp 0.8.1 and gnumeric 1.2.12 crash out with errors:

** (gnumeric:7858): WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Verdana 10

** (gnome_segv:7859): WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Verdana 10

I've tried configuring /etc/fonts/fonts.conf and running fc-cache -f.
