XPad breaks w/GTK2 upgrade [SOLVED, See posts at end]

[2010-04-02 08:47] upgraded gtk2 (2.18.9-2 -> 2.20.0-1)

...well...it's best if you see:

[EDIT]: Just downgraded, that didn't fix the problem...moving this to the newbie corner would be highly appreciated unless this is an upgrade problem.
Preferences:

Error output from console:

(xpad:1646): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: IA__g_object_set_valist: construct property "type" for object `XpadPad' can't be set after construction

Whatever has changed, I have the same problem, and I am a Debian Unstable user.  I only noticed the break today, it's possible that whatever package has been upgraded is already out of my /var/cache/apt/archives folder... but, I am reading that there were updates to:

libgtk2.0-0_2.20.0-2_i386.deb
libgtk2.0-bin_2.20.0-2_all.deb
libgtk2.0-common_2.20.0-2_all.deb
gtk2-engines-pixbuf_2.20.0-2_i386.deb

... some other packages

When this issue is explained, someone post a solution please!  Xpad is the most useful app on my computer until it fails to display

I'm guessing mine failed as well, was a useful app though.

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

Yes, indeed! Many thanks for fixing this.
Xpad is so useful because there aren't so many alternatives to it.
