Failed to load image file-manager

Hello everybody,

I've recently install ArchLinux (0.6) on my machine. Then do a pacman -Sy and pacman -Su and fresh install xfree86, gnome and gnome-extra but when I run into gnome a window error appears:

error
Failed to load image file-manager
Details: file not found

I can't see mostly of the icons, like the foot of gnome in applications, the icon of file browser, the show desktop ..

what can it be?

well, thanks in advance.

Ps: xscreensaver should be added as a dependency when pacman -S gnome
Ps2: sorry my poor english

Yes, you're right.

To solve (until a next release) I done:

pacman -Rcd gtk2
pacman -A /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gtk2-2.4.0-1.pkg.tar.gz

And avoid to do pacman -Su ...
Thanks and bye.

Re: Failed to load image file-manager

in /etc/pacman.conf
ignorepkg=gtk2

this is better I believe [except the new packages depend on gtk last package and previous version causes problems. But this is unlikely to happen, because the bad gtk2 is just a revision (-2) and not a higher version.

Well .. if someone want the old revision of gtk2 (gtk2-2.4.0-1.pkg.tar.gz) can download from:
http://200.114.178.230/files/

Note that:
- 1 connection for ip is allowed
- 5 max clients
I have only 16 KB/s for upstream

Probably abs'ing (how you call that?) gnome-icon-theme, gnome-themes and gnome-themes-extras should work too. Trying that now...
