Hi, Thanks for your insight. I got the GTK warning when I try to perform an action with the Rattle GUI (v2.5.30), for example loading data. The problem is that this error obviously prevents the program to run. I found many users reporting this issue but no one seems to have a clue.
You're certainly a very advanced user with some kind of custom install of R. As you can use rattle you should certainly have something I don't.
