IS normal? I normally launched these packages from the panel in the GUI, so any such messages would not have been visible. I began launching them from a terminal window as a diagnostic, which revealed the segfault message when things broke for whatever the reason was.
Given that removing and re-installing libgail-common appears to have cleared the problem, perhaps something was causing the packages that failed to attempt to use gail when it was not appropriate.
I will let you know if I encounter any further issues.
I just installed all of the queued updates with the exception of virtualbox and the linux kernel. Everything appears to be working OK.
I had a thought occur to me, perhaps that console message "Gtk-Message: 11:09:45.426: Failed to load module "gail"
** (fcl:2049): WARNING **: 11:09:45.439: (../atk- adaptor/ bridge. c:1018) :atk_bridge_ adaptor_ init: runtime check failed: (root)"
