After downloading the message bodies, I quit PAN. I restarted and continued to download headers and messages for 15 minutes to see if I could get the bug to show up. The only time I could get any bugs or segfaults to showup was when I noticed that I still had gtk+-1.2.10-r3 installed and did a unmerge and restarted PAN in the same xterm I had open before. (Which caused similar errors to what Gold is Heavy has seen). Starting a new xterm solved that problem and I haven't gotten it to crash since.

So I don't think there is real issue with the dependances. Maybe someone else has a better idea of what the problem is. I can't find it at all, and after my mistakes earlier in this thread... I am being as careful as I can :)

The problem is probably related to the fact that we did a large move of
packages last weekend. Where we for example moved gtk+ from /usr/X11R6
into /usr and all of GNOME from /opt/gnome into /usr.

If actions haven't been taken to fix this _PLEASE_ read:
http://cvs.gentoo.org/pipermail/gentoo-dev/2001-October/007371.html
(the entire thread)

And _DON'T_ forget to remove /etc/env.d/90gnome, run env-update log out
and in again so that GNOMEDIR and GNOME_PATH is _NOT_ set.
