I couldn't find anything in /usr/bin, but then I tried `grep -r nberra` /etc`. I have /etc/X11/Xsession.d/52libcanberra-gtk3-module_add-to-gtk-modules /etc/X11/Xsession.d/52libcanberra-gtk-module_add-to-gtk-modules: both adding "canberra-gtk-module" to GTK_MODULES, and sure enough
% echo $GTK_MODULES canberra-gtk-moduleanberra-gtk-module That explains why GTK apps are trying and failing to load this garbled library! (BUG!) I don't see how the environment variable gets garbled every time I restart, perhaps there's a race condition (in the X display manager?) loading the two sourced Xsession(5) files? It turns out I have both i A libcanberra-gtk3-module - translates Gtk3 widgets signals to event sounds i libcanberra-gtk-module - translates Gtk+ widgets signals to event sound installed. (BUG?) Do these packages conflict? `aptitude show` says each conflicts with itself, which seems weird, but I'm no packaging expert. It sounds like Debian upstream may be getting rid of the Xsession files that fiddle with GTK_MODULES in libcanberra-0.28-3, see bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=622992 To sum up, the workaround is probably to uninstall one of the libcanberra-gtk{,3}-module packages, but as usual there may be other bugs lurking: the corruption of GTK_MODULES and a packaging issue. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #622992 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=622992 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888779 Title: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-moduleanberra-gtk-module" (sic) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libcanberra/+bug/888779/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
