Hi there. In order to compile the latest GAIM (beta 4) I had to upgrade gtk, glib, pango, and the gtk-related tools on my Mandriva 2006. For this, I removed the RPM's for these, and installed the tools after compiling them from scratch. All went well, and I was able to compile and use gaim afterwards. However, now odd things happen. I get the following message: (gimp:32654): Pango-WARNING **: shape engine failure, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'DejaVu Sans 10' and I get no text within gimp afterwards -- I get all the icons, but no text in the pull down menus! Likewise, tools like Mandriva Control Center (mcc) die with a Can't locate object method "signal_connect" via package "Gtk2::Window" at /usr/sbin/drakconf.real line 98. message. Any ideas how I should proceed. I think I also tried "urpmi dejavu" and it said it was installed.
