The original Bug Description mentions libgvfsdbus.so, and this was
repeated in later postings.  In Kate Stewart's comment of 2010-09-22
only pixbuf is mentioned for the first time.  Chris Coulson wrote on
2010-09-22 ia32-libs is also missing ibus.  Chris Coulson also wrote on
2010-09-27: Additional issues not related to gdk-pixbuf should be
tracked elsewhere.  Should I take this elsewhere?

I'm seeing the same problem with wrong version (64 bit) of
libgvfsdbus.so attempted to be loaded by Thunderbird 3.1.6-9.

xxxxx@love:/local/sw/thunderbird$ ./thunderbird
/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Failed to load module: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so

Prior to Thunderbird failing in this dramatic manner, I had installed a
kernal patch via http://radu.cotescu.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-
ubuntu-fedora-opensuse.  VMware Server 2.0 does not run out of the box
on Linux 64.  This patch also required using a Firefox plugin to launch
the VMware console, which made Firefox unstable, and then my Virtual
Machine (XP SP3) was unstable.  I uninstalled VMware Server 2.0. I
uninstalled the Firefox plugin. I did an aptitude upgrade too. Still 64
bit lib was being loaded.  I tried upgrading from Thunderbird 3.1.6 to
3.1.9, still no dice.

I rolled back my kernel to 2.6.32-29 which was dated 2 weeks before
installing the Radu patch, but still my Thunderbird won't start for this
problem of loading the 64 bit library when it should be loading the 32
bit one.

Any suggestions welcome, including whether this is a manifestation of
the wider scope of the original ia32-libs bug report.
