Source: pluma
Version: 1.14.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,



   * What led up to the situation? After an update on 03rd June 2016, I noticed
mate apps such as pluma, eye of mate would not run. When I executed them from
the cli, I got the error message: Gtk-ERROR **: GTK+ 2.x symbols detected.
Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)? I tried uninstalling gtk-2, but this only led to other
applications not working. I tried re-installing pluma and eye of mate, but this
also did not solve the problem.

   * What was the outcome of this action? All were ineffective.

   * What outcome did you expect instead? I was hoping my mate apps such as
pluma and eye of mate would be useable again. As it stands since the update,
any mate apps using gtk become unusable.
