i can't read what it says, but i'm willing to bet you are using an older gtk version ( like 2.8.6 ).

First update gtk and try again.

Thanks

[Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) 2006-03-19 09:46:59 UTC]

please also report what version of gtk+ you are using now.

[Comment 4 Romain Guillebert 2006-03-19 11:19:02 UTC]

I was using gtk+-2.8.8 I'm trying with the last version

[Comment 5 Romain Guillebert 2006-03-19 12:35:08 UTC]

Thx i have updated gtk+ and that work

[Comment 6 foser (RETIRED) 2006-03-19 14:38:01 UTC]

not fixed until the gtk dep is updated. However it seems those bits need a glib-2.10, so the real issue probably is you had glib-2.10 but gtk+ wasn't updated yet.

Can you post (relevant bits) of /var/log/emerge.log ?

[Comment 7 Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) 2006-03-23 10:32:12 UTC]

The glib dep was updated, and the GTK+ dep had to be updated as a result.  Marking this as fixed.

[Comment 8 foser (RETIRED) 2006-03-23 12:27:14 UTC]

well.. it is not that simple, the error stems from a discrepancy between glib and gtk+ versions afaics. Just updating the deps is not the correct solution.

[Comment 10 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) 2006-06-15 07:43:27 UTC]

well, how is this going ?

[Comment 11 foser (RETIRED) 2006-08-03 10:10:14 UTC]

Not the esthetical correct solution, but it works in all common use cases apparently. We'll stick with it.
