This is certainly caused by a locally installed, older version of glib.

I have enough of these stupid bug reports. Why do users keep installing
local versions just to fuck up their system?

I understand your irritation, but look below:

gutow:/home/gutow# dpkg -l glib*


hi,

glib is libglib2.0-0.

What is the output of "ldd /usr/bin/<an_app_using_gtk> | grep glib" ?


Hi, thakns for the prompt reply. Here is the requested output:

gutow:/home/gutow# ldd /usr/bin/gnumeric | grep "glib"
        libglib-2.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x4095d000)
gutow:/home/gutow# ldd /usr/bin/g3data | grep "glib"
        libglib-2.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x40458000)
gutow:/home/gutow# ldd /usr/bin/gimp | grep "glib"
        libglib-2.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x4059c000)
gutow:/home/gutow# ldd /usr/bin/yank | grep "glib"
        libglib-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 (0x40b3a000)

(The last application works as usual).
In addition I have detected:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]/~/fortran/gielda/6% sudo find / -name 'libglib-2.0*'
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0.600.3
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.a
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so
/usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0.400.4
/usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so
/usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.la
[EMAIL PROTECTED]/~/fortran/gielda/6%

So, indeed, there is something under /usr/local/lib, but,
frankly, I didn't put it there 'by hand'.  The first and
last file in /usr/local/lib are real files;  second and third
are merely pointers to the first file.
How can I fix this?  Do I have to check/reinstall nearly
70 affected applications?  Or, maybe, I should replace
only the two above links to point to /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0.600.3
from now on?
