Bug#388450: loaders/immodules not updated on upgrade

[Damyan Ivanov]

Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.10.1-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

Feeling dangerous today, I gave some new experimental gnome packages a
try. I know they are not for general use, yet, but the problem I've
discovered is easy to fix and perhaps got overlooked. So I decided to
report it.

After upgrading libgtk2.0-0, all PNG-using applications stopped showing
the images - file chooser icons, new windows' icons, gqview, etc. Error
message is (translated from Bulgarian):

(gqview:27100): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon for stock:
Image loading module -
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-png.so can't be loaded:
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-png.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Manually running /usr/lib/libgtk2.0-0/update-gdkpixbuf-loaders made them
all work again.

I think postinst of 2.10 is missing the following lines, currently
present in 2.8.20-1's postinst:
==================
case "$1" in
    configure)
        /usr/lib/libgtk2.0-0/update-gtk-immodules
        /usr/lib/libgtk2.0-0/update-gdkpixbuf-loaders
    ;;
esac
==================

I didn't observe any IM-related errors, but I don't use any advanced IM.


thanks
