Hydrogen exits with symbol lookup error

I installed Hydrogen from the repos, and after starting it, I only got this:

hydrogen: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libclearlooks.so: undefined symbol: gtk_check_version

I have been searching, but can't understand what is going wrong. Especially since Hydrogen uses QT, and not gtk

Re: Hydrogen exits with symbol lookup error

Update your system with 'pacman -Syu'.

Update your system with 'pacman -Syu'.

My system is up-to-date already

So is mine and I have no problems running it <scratches head>

/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libclearlooks.so: is in gtk-engines. I'm using dwm so I don't need it, but your DE might.

Yeah it does, I use XFCE. Obviously, the file exists normally and everything else works fine

Re: Hydrogen exits with symbol lookup error

Well, if I remove the libclearlooks.so file, Hydrogen starts. It throws these lot of these warnings:

(hydrogen:1652): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "clearlooks",

I also tried recompiling from ABS, but got:

Install directory: "data/img" as "/tmp/hydrogen/pkg/usr/share/hydrogen/data/img"
scons: *** [/tmp/hydrogen/pkg/usr/share/hydrogen/data/img/gray] /tmp/hydrogen/pkg/usr/share/hydrogen/data/img/gray: File exists

Compiling from AUR (svn package) works, but throws the same error.

I have opened a thread on the Hydrogen forums: http://hydrogen.popez.org/hcms/node/1939

FYI; this suddenly just started working ...
