Missing Symbol g_once_init_enter_impl

There is a log of this going around on Sid:
... symbol lookup error: ... undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_impl

Any fix?

I'd just like to throw my hat in the ring for this as well. I used to run Sid, and after an dist-upgrade, running my terminal emulator returns this error:

Quote:

Unable to register terminal service: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken
xfce4-terminal: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libvte.so.9: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_impl

I have since downgraded everything to lenny, but this problem remains. Are there libraries that need purging or reinstalling?

AHA! I had an old manual installation of glib lying around, so the libraries were getting directed to old versions. Once that was uninstalled, everything was working again. The final clue (for me at least) was here:
