Package: gnome-shell Version: 3.2.2.1-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
After upgrading gnome-shell, gconf and pulse audio, gnome-shell becomes unusable. gnome shell apparently fails to start because it still links to libpulsecommon-1.0.so, which is no longer available: josh@howlingfantods:~$ ldd /usr/bin/gnome-shell | grep pulse libpulse-mainloop-glib.so.0 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libpulse-mainloop-glib.so.0 (0xb5eed000) libpulse.so.0 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libpulse.so.0 (0xb5e9e000) libpulsecommon-1.0.so => not found libpulsecommon-1.1.so => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pulseaudio/libpulsecommon-1.1.so (0xb5654000) After login the mouse is working, but it is impossible to launch anything, since there's no interface available. Logging into a console, using startx and setting the display var allows one to launch a terminal (and from that terminal you can launch whatever else you need including the window manager metacity). Attempting to start gnome-shell from the terminal produces this error: josh@howlingfantods:~$ gnome-shell gnome-shell: error while loading shared libraries: libpulsecommon-1.0.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory and exits, so I assume this is the fatal error preventing from starting, although there seems to be a heap of new problems (see .xsession-errors below), possible related to the upgrade from gconf 2.x -> gconf 3.2.3. This message was displayed while upgrading gconf (and which can be read in the file /usr/share/doc/gconf/NEWS.Debian.gz): gconf (3.2.3-2) unstable; urgency=low GConf 3.x introduces important internal changes that allow it to drop obsolete ORBit libraries in favour of a new D-Bus interface. While the GConf API remains compatible, after a system running gconfd 2.32 is upgraded to 3.2, newly launched applications will be unable to talk to the old daemon, and will fail to load their configuration. Simply restarting your X session will be enough to load the new gconfd and restore the affected functionality. -- Jordi Mallach <jo...@debian.org> Thu, 23 Feb 2012 17:57:58 +0100 However restarting the xsession and even rebooting didn't help. There apparently are several other items which no longer load properly.
