1. How come the incompatible update was installed on my system? Doesn't
Ubuntu automatically do incompatibility detection?
No. Once you enable a PPA with untested software, you are on your own.
2. Why is gdk-pixbuf incompatible, if it is not in the list of the
packages that were updated and thus caused this issue?
Because glib2.0 changed things that gdk-pixbuf was depending on I would
guess.
3. I already tried (prior to submitting this bug) to downgrade the
packages I installed but had no luck. The reason is that package
dependencies force me to remove hundreds of packages in my system that
depend on the packages I want to downgrade.
You can remove packages installed by a PPA with the ppa-purge command:
$ sudo ppa-purge ppa:webupd8team/gvfs-libmtp
I am closing this bug, since the problem is caused by incompatible software in
a PPA.
** Changed in: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu)
