Bug 25187 – bonobo-activation-2.2.3 broken

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Will Reinhart 2003-07-24 11:12:25 UTC]

I upgraded bonobo-activation from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3 yesterday as part of upgrading
evolution, and it left GNOME unable to use any bonobo components.  Reverting to
version 2.2.2 fixed the problem.  It might have something to do with this GNOME
bug. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90983

'emerge info' please and some sort of output on the breaking GNOME (check .gnomerc-errors ).

I don't see how the bug is related. It talks about crashing bonobo when you use invalid server files and how to circumvent that by fixing error logging, which shouldnt happen on a normal system.

The error from the activation system is:

(This is from evolution, but other GNOME apps fail with similar errors.)

Alright, I found the solution in <a href="http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=68728">this thread</a> in the forum.

hmm i thought this problem was history, it is known to me actually. Didn't think of it here. It has all todo with running bonobo 1 and 2 versions alongside, which doesn't go well.

Good you figured it out yourself. Closing this one.
