Package: capplets Version: 1:2.6.1-1 Severity: important Tags: experimental
I'm running GNOME 2.6 from experimental. Every time I try to start GNOME, I get a message that gnome-settings-daemon failed to start because it restarted too many times. Then I get a desktop without my theme loaded. I don't seem to have a binary named 'gnome-settings-daemon', though there is one named 'gnome-settings-daemon.real'. If I run that, it works fine, and loads my desktop theme and most of my preferences. (It does not load my number of workspaces, and Nautilus' icons are all "blank sheets of paper" no matter what I do). This same effect happens if I go to Applications > Desktop Preferences > Theme. Symlinking /usr/bin/gnome-settings-daemon.real to /usr/bin/gnome-settings-daemon did not solve the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages capplets depends on: ii capplets-data 1:2.6.1-1 configuration applets for GNOME 2 ii gnome-control-center 1:2.6.1-1 The GNOME Control Center for GNOME ii gnome-desktop-data 2.6.1-1 Common files for GNOME 2 desktop a ii gnome-icon-theme 1.2.0-2 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii gnome-panel 2.6.1-1 Launch and/or dock GNOME 2 applica ii gnome-session 2.6.1-2 The GNOME 2 Session Manager ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.16-5 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libasound2 1.0.4-1 Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ii libatk1.0-0 1.6.0-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-3 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libbonobo2-0 2.6.0-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.6.0-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libeel2-2 2.6.1-1 Eazel Extensions Library (for GNOM ii libesd0 0.2.29-1 Enlightened Sound Daemon - Shared ii libfontconfig1 2.2.2-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgail-common 1.4.1-1 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgail17 1.4.1-1 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgconf2-4 2.6.1-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgcrypt7 1.1.90-1.1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglade2-0 1:2.3.6-4 Library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.4.0-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2 2.6.1-1 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome-keyring0 0.2.1-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.6.1-1 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.6.0-3 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeui-0 2.6.1-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.6.1.1-2 The GNOME virtual file-system libr ii libgnutls10 1.0.4-3 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libgpg-error0 0.7-1 library for common error values an ii libgtk2.0-0 2.4.0-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 4.3.0-7 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-9 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libmetacity0 1:2.8.0-3 Common library of lightweight GTK2 ii libnautilus2-2 2.6.1-1 libraries for nautilus components ii liborbit2 1:2.10.0-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.4.0-2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.7-4 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 4.3.0-7 X Window System Session Management ii libstartup-notification0 0.6-2 library for program launch feedbac ii libtasn1-2 0.2.7-1 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii libx11-6 4.3.0-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.2-6 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxklavier8 1.02-1 X Keyboard Extension high-level AP ii libxml2 2.6.9-1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 4.3.0-7 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii nautilus 2.6.1-1 file manager and graphical shell f ii xlibs 4.3.0-7 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.1-5 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- Rob Speer
