I downloaded the debian source package for capplets, changed
gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon.c, recompiled and the bug is
gone (as well as the nasty XKB error message).
This is what I changed:
In the function:
GObject *
gnome_settings_daemon_new (void)
I commented out the lines:
gnome_settings_keyboard_xkb_init (client);
gnome_settings_keyboard_init (client);
(lines 278-279 of gnome-settings-daemon.c)
And the SIGSEGV is gone. Obviously, there's a problem with these functions
that's causing the SIGSEGV, but I don't have the time nor the knowledge to
be able to fix it myself. However, I'm willing to provide more input if
needed.
I don't know how much functionality I'm losing, everything seems to be
working right now.
