I finally got a bit time to track the problem. I don't know the real
reason but it only happens if gtk_init() was called before the external
application. 

I see no advantage of calling gtk_init() in main.c of xfprint-manager
before starting the other application so my suggestion is to change
the behaviour. A patch is attached.

Any comments? If you don't see a problem I would appreciate if the patch
comes into 4.0.2.


Regards,
Bernhard
