[Solved]Gnome shell throws an error then segfaults.

Hello

Just upgraded to Gnome 3 and installed gnome-shell. I have Compiz installed but I turned it off (or think I have at least) and tried to run gnome-shell.

$ gnome-shell --replace

(gnome-shell:4753): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: g_object_new_valist: object class `GjsContext' has no property named `js-version'
Segmentation fault

I have tried uninstalling compiz completely and restarting X but the failure persists.

I'm not sure what to do next.
If you need any more info please let me know and I'll try to get it
I am using the ATI open-source drivers on a 64 bit system.

thanks
Caillin

you don't use packages from our repos especially xulrunner, gjs and gobject-introspection

pacman -Qm

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Thanks
I had Firefox-pgo and its deps installed. Didn't think it would be a problem. D'oh
it's fixed now.
