CCd to guile-gtk list

What do you mean by broken? Which version of gnome-guile?
What is the problem?

at least the version that Debian ships with guile-1.4, and

Latest 0.20 works, old 0.10 works...

libglade is part of gnome-guile. CVS tree has examples...

[GNOME segmentation fault dialog]

The backtrace would be rather useless because it's all scm_ functions
with no debugging info.  My guess is that the wrapper definitions are
somehow out of date WRT current GNOME.  The the Debian maintainer
says he sent a bug report but I can't find it on bugzilla; the 
original Debian bug report is at 

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?archive=no&bug=69144

It's against an older version but the problem is the same.

BTW, both the libguilegnome / libguilegtk and guile Debian maintainers
listed below work for Gnumatic too, and I'm pretty much in continuous
communication with both of them on irc.gnome.org #gnucash so I can
help with communication if necessary.

Thanks,

Ok If you do the following you will not get a core dump:


(define (go)
     (gnome-init-hack "go" #f '())
     (let ((window (gtk-window-new 'toplevel)))
          (gtk-widget-show window)))

(go)

I have been able to reproduce the SEG fault and will be checking it.
Meanwhile you should be able to use gnome-guile as previously shown
