thats very odd, was gconfd running at the time? i assume you are running gnomemeeting-0.98.5 ? do other gnome applications work?
Hello Alastair, Other gnome applications work fine (evolution, nautilus etc.). Gnomemeeting was 0.98.0 since it was the version I had working on another machine and was marked stable. Even if I had this problem with gnomemeeting for a couple of weeks, regular updates did not solve the problem. However, early today I did an emerge -u --deep world, and tried gnomemeetig 0.98.5 with libxml2-2.6.0 and now the application starts. I tried the old version 0.98.0 and it works as well. The updated packages were: 1070995174: >>> emerge (1 of 21) sys-apps/coreutils-5.0-r3 to / 1070995281: >>> emerge (2 of 21) sys-apps/shadow-4.0.3-r8 to / 1070995371: >>> emerge (3 of 21) app-admin/fam-oss-2.6.10-r1 to / 1070995411: >>> emerge (4 of 21) app-office/gnucash-1.8.7 to / 1070996181: *** emerge --resume --skipfirst 1070996181: >>> emerge (1 of 17) media-libs/imlib2-1.1.0 to / 1070996298: >>> emerge (2 of 17) media-libs/libwmf-0.2.8.2 to / 1070996383: >>> emerge (3 of 17) dev-perl/libvorbis-perl-0.04 to / 1070996394: >>> emerge (4 of 17) media-sound/vorbis-tools-1.0-r2 to / 1070996437: >>> emerge (5 of 17) net-analyzer/traceroute-1.4_p12-r2 to / 1070996454: >>> emerge (6 of 17) app-editors/vim-core-6.2-r5 to / 1070996527: >>> emerge (7 of 17) app-editors/vim-6.2-r5 to / 1070996700: >>> emerge (8 of 17) app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.0 to / 1070996913: >>> emerge (9 of 17) net-misc/rsync-2.5.7 to / 1070996961: >>> emerge (10 of 17) dev-perl/Digest-MD5-2.26 to / 1070996995: >>> emerge (11 of 17) net-www/mozilla-1.5-r1 to / 1071000875: >>> emerge (12 of 17) net-www/epiphany-1.0.4 to / 1071001616: >>> emerge (13 of 17) app-arch/file-roller-2.4.1.1 to / 1071001801: >>> emerge (14 of 17) app-text/ggv-2.4.0.2 to / 1071002020: >>> emerge (15 of 17) x11-terms/gnome-terminal-2.4.1 to / 1071002101: >>> emerge (16 of 17) app-portage/gentoolkit-0.1.36 to / 1071002123: >>> emerge (17 of 17) sys-fs/reiserfsprogs-3.6.11 to / 1071095600: >>> emerge (1 of 2) dev-libs/libxml2-2.6.2 to / 1071095828: >>> emerge (2 of 2) net-im/gnomemeeting-0.98.5 to / So in one of the old packages there was a problem. I apologize for the inconvenience. Had I waited another day, I would not have filled this bug report. Again sorry for the disturb. Rongten
thanks for the report. i suspect something odd with libxml2 as gconf relies heavily on that. i'm glad it is working for you now.
