problem while loading OAFIID Glipper

[Ying Hu]

Trying to make Glipper appear on upper panel of Gnome desktop causes following errors to appear:

Error
The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:Glipper"
Do you want to delete teh applet from your configuration?
  Don't Delete Delete

Choosing either seems to be irrelevant - no change is seen if it is tried again after either.

Then:
Problem in glipper
The problem cannot be reported:
You have some obsolete package versions installed. Please upgrade the following packages and check if the problem still occurs:
libglib2.0-0, libpulse-mainloop-glib0, libpulse0, libpython2.6, python2.6, python2.6-minimal

However, all these packages were updated yesterday, and I haven't been able to put Glipper on panel at all since OS installation.

Seems similar to Glipper instability seen in 9.04, and also perhaps to descriptions in these bugs:
#213494, #305070, #395304, #400976, #234410, #38240, #308426

Running fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha5, 64-bit, installed 9/12, updated throughout 9/13.

I have exactly the same problem on a fresh install of 9.10

Fresh installation of Ubuntu 9.10 386, but Glipper is not available into the "Add to Panel" window.

Hello

Is this issue present with the latest updated Lucid's packages?

Thanks

I think it is: added Glipper to the panel yesterday; today (first reboot since then) I'm getting the same error:
