Bug#551762: update "testing" to version 2.18.2-1 renders package "gpsim" unusable

[richard lucassen]

Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.18.2-1
Severity: important

Not really sure if it's the libgtk2.0-0 package, as stated below,
downgrading these packages resolves the problem.

gtk2-engines
gtk2-engines-pixbuf
libgail18
libgail-common
libgail-dbg
libgtk2.0-0
libgtk2.0-dev

Tested on both i386 and x86-64

1) apt-get install gpsim

2) cd /tmp/

3) untar the tarball int.tar.gz

4) gpsim --symbol=int.cod

5) open the RAM or EEPROM window

6) crash (see error.txt)

I compiled 2.18.3-1 from unstable: same problem.

Workaround: downgrade to previous version. I downgraded these packages
(all these because of dependencies):

gtk2-engines_2.16.1-2_i386.deb
gtk2-engines-pixbuf_2.16.6-2_i386.deb
libgail18_2.16.6-1_i386.deb
libgail-common_2.16.6-1_i386.deb
libgail-dbg_2.16.6-1_i386.deb
libgtk2.0-0_2.16.6-1_i386.deb
libgtk2.0-dev_2.16.6-1_i386.deb

Richard.
