Hi there,

I had a similar problem this morning.

After some trail and error package upgrading/downgrading of related
packages, I think the problem lies in the new python-gtk2 package.

As you can see, version 2.4.0-1 was uploaded to unstable, instead of
experimental. On the other hand, python-gnome2 is still the "old"
version (2.0.3-1), compared to the version in experimental (2.5.90-1).

Installing this version from unstable (as well as python2.3-gnome2 of
course) solved the problem for me.

hth,
Philipp
