xfce4-panel broken

[Paul Tansom]

I've just restarted my panel to see if my newly install scribus-cvs
appeared on it automatically or not (through the Debian menus) only to
find that it dies instantly with an error. The messages are:



** Message: module /usr/lib/xfce4/modules/libxfce4_mime.so successfully

(xfce4-panel:7900): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to add a widget with type

I am running Debian testing and have just done a few upgrades. From
looking at the dependencies the ones that seem to be most relevant to
this are:

libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 -> 1.11.3-1
libglib2.0-0 2.8.6-1 -> 2.10.1-2
libpango1.0-0 1.10.4-1 -> 1.12.0-2
libxml2 2.6.23.dfsg.2-2 -> 2.6.23.dfsg.2-3


Does anyone have any ideas?

I'm using the standard Debian sources (based at ftp.uk.debian.org) for
testing, plus the secure-testing.debian.net updates. In addition to this
I have only added the XFCE4 ones at www.os-works.com and today the
Scribus ones at debian.scribus.net.


I'm off to bed now to come at it with fresh eyes in the morning in the
hope I can spot something odd going on, but in the mean time I thought a
post here wouldn't hurt :)
