That probably does not have anything to do with QSampler. This is a common
error, which in most cases is caused by remains of old libgig installations:

So get rid of all remains of old libgig versions on your system then recompile
QSampler.

Exactly: No, thanks! For both suggestions. :)
BTW, personally I would not pick GTK for any new projects anymore. There are
so many issues with GTK you have to deal with just for achieving very simple
tasks, it is not documented at all, and sometimes I have the feeling as if I
were one of like 5 people still developing with GTK. For example in contrast
to other toolkits, when I google for a certain GTK issue, I either get links
to auto generated GTK API docs, or links to the gigedit svn sources. You get
the point.
So in short: Developing on top of gtk(mm) requires much more development time
than with other toolkits / APIs. And for your app to behave correctly, you
should probably even branch your own version of the GTK libs for the project.
