Hello,
I've had some problems lately after I installed a few language packages. First, I noticed Nautilus wouldn't open. I tried to open it in Terminal but Gnome's Terminal wouldn't open. So I edited one of the launchers in the panel to point to xterm. Starting gnome-terminal and nautilus gives this:

$ nautilus
nautilus: error while loading shared library: libgailutil.so.18: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ gnome-terminal
gnome-terminal: error while loading shared library: libgailutil.so.18: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

how do I get that library back? help would be much appreciated :D

I solved it.. I made a bad mistake :| I added the jaunty repo to install OpenOffice 3
I re-installed Ubuntu swiftly after realizing what I've done.. it was the easiest way at the time o_o

:frown:

BTW, I found a howto on how to install OO3, so I'll use that :|

:oops:
