Strange icons after upgrading...

Hi list, I was running testing for a while on my ibook2, but a week ago I decided to upgrade to unstable. Since then, most GNOME related icons (on buttons, etc ) are broken: they are just little blackish boxes... This occurs only in GNOME programs (galeon, gdm), not in GTK only programs

gnome-libs is broken on ppc. You need to rebuild it after adding linpng2-dev in the Build-Depends field of debian/control. The packager is aware of this problem. If you prefer you can download and install the packages I rebuilt yesterday : http://ufies.org/~christophe/powerpc/ Christophe

menuconfig xconfig

With the newest benh (2.4.20) I am unable to run make xconfig or make menuconfig. This is a problem. make menuconfig says I must have ncurses. But I do. apt-get reports ncurses-base, ncurses-bin, and libncurses5 are up-to-date. make xconfig complains about something in drivers/video/Config.in.

Well, with libncurses5-dev, make menuconfig gives me a menu. But the menu breaks when I try to select the framebuffer menu. And I notice that xconfig won't give me the advanced framebuffer menu, and fails to set any framebuffer fonts at all. Hence make vmlinux fails. fbcon.c: In function
