I've seen this too at the time I created the update for the port. So far I've
seen no problem so far. It's just a warning, not an error (according to the
message you quoted here). I assume GTK is able to differentiate between a
warning and an error.

I have some ideas what may be the cause (it may involve LINUXBASE/etc/passwd
and related files), but so far I hadn't time to investigate this closer and
maybe quiet the warning somehow.

Bye,
Alexander.

Why bother building anymore nuclear
warheads until we use the ones we have?
