"you installed local builds which are taking over the ubuntu versions"

[JasonSpradlin82]

I can't run certain gnome applications, including the gnomes games package and gnome-system-monitor. They begin loading, and then leave the following error in terminal:

/usr/games/mahjongg: symbol lookup error: /usr/games/mahjongg: undefined symbol: rsvg_handle_new_from_file

/usr/games/gnobots2: symbol lookup error: /usr/games/gnobots2: undefined symbol: rsvg_handle_new_from_file


Also, while using gnome-system-monitor, if I select the resources tabs, its crashes with the following error (last line only):

$ gnome-system-monitor

** (gnome-system-monitor:7011): WARNING **: SELinux was found but is not enabled.

gnome-system-monitor: symbol lookup error: gnome-system-monitor: undefined symbol: rsvg_handle_new_from_file

I was asked in another forum to run "ldd /usr/games/mahjongg" and the results are attached.

After posting the attached file on the other forum, I got the following response, but no information as to one goes about correcting this:


> libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0xb7b5a000)

you installed local builds which are taking over the ubuntu versions, that's not an ubuntu bug

I've since re-installed all of the libgtk packages that were installed and re-installed gnome-games, but neither made any difference.
