Hello,

Sorry for the delayed reply, real life is demanding lately.

Looking for this error lead me to a similar bug:

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?20453

It seems the reason there is that there are GUI calls from a secondary thread.

Oolite uses threads and I suspect this bug might be similar, still before going on that path...

Doing it right now ;-)

I see your system has libgl1-mesa-glx and libglu1-mesa are not the same version, while 
libgl1-mesa-glx seems to be an unofficial etch version.

Would you be kind enough to downgrade libgl1-mesa-glx to the official etch version, or upgrade 
ibglu1-mesa to the same version as libgl1-mesa-glx and see if the bug is still reproducible?
