Bug Description

Binary package hint: indicator-datetime

Because of gtk2/gtk3 mixing in the preference binary, it won't start in oneiric. It says:

Gtk-ERROR **: GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported

I *believe* this is because of this bit in the configure.ac:

# FIXME: polkit-gtk-1 isn't gtk3-compatible
AS_IF([test "x$with_gtk" = x3],
 [PKG_CHECK_MODULES(PREF, gio-2.0 >= $GIO_REQUIRED_VERSION
                          gtk+-3.0 >= $GTK3_REQUIRED_VERSION
                                 unique-3.0
                                 json-glib-1.0
                                 polkit-gtk-1)

So we need to use a gtk3 version of libpolkit.

Ah, whoops. I had assumed it had already been built in oneiric for gtk3. So I guess the error is actually that some gtk3 dep has sneaked in.
