Russell, I did start off installing from source but the fault was pretty much the same. I briefly looked at uninstalling but there are a million other packages that require glib. So I don't think it would be wise to remove it altogether.

Doesn't rpm have a force option? _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
