The kcontrol module is what creates ~/.gtkrc-2.0. /.../ > I moved all three and logged out and in, and things seem to be back to > normal - thanks for helping me fix it.

Yes, that's a bit worrying, but as you mention, it's it being dealt with in another bug report. > > I'll think about how to deal with this problem. Still pondering. One way could be to set GTK2_RC_FILES environment variable and avoid ~/.gtkrc-2.0 since it overrides the GNOME settings. I'll have to talk with upstream about this.
