Description of problem: The tool does not start. Instead a window with an error message appears (directly after the root password query, if a user tries to run it). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.17-0.FC2.1 How reproducible: Run system-config-network Actual results: Window with error message. system-config-network does not start. Expected results: system-config-network starting without errors
The error message that is shown: Component: system-config-network Version: 1.3.17 Summary: TB8867138a system-config-network-gui:140:main:ImportError: /usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_return_if_fail_warning Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/system-config-network-gui", line 140, in main import gtk.glade ImportError: /usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_return_if_fail_warning Local variables in innermost frame: splash_window: None splash: 0 NC_functions: <module 'netconfpkg.NC_functions' from '/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NC_functions.pyc'> gnome: <module 'gnome' from '/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/__init__.pyc'>
Other system-config-... tools hat problems with libglade, too. I had libglade-2.4.0-5_1.rhfc2.at (ATrpms) installed. After I switched back to libglade-2.3.6-1 (Freshrpms) at least some tools started again. system-config-network still complained about "error while loading shared libraries: libglade-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" libglade-2.0.so.0 existed but as a symbolic link to libglade-2.0.so.0.0.4 which did not exist. Instead a libglade-2.0.so.0.0.3 existed. I re-linked the file: rm /usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so.0 ln -s /usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so.0.0.3 /usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so.0 Finally, all configuration tools work again.
I changed the bug info to NOTABUG as this error is caused by a libglade RPM from ATrpms. See http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=418 for a similar bug report.
