[Launchpad Bug Tracker <829778@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package glib2.0 - 2.29.16-0ubuntu3

---------------
glib2.0 (2.29.16-0ubuntu3) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Add conflicts against wncksyncdaemon and bamfdaemon (<= 0.2.92-0ubuntu1),
    as they ship gio modules which use an API that has been removed, causing
    anything using glib to break (fixes LP: #829778)

Title:
  Breaks everything because of an API break in glib

Status in “glib2.0” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This package is still installed on my system from an earlier Ubuntu
  version (maverick?). However, it ships a gio extension point which
  uses an API recently removed from glib, and subsequently prevents
  everything using glib from starting (which is basically everything),
  due to the following error:

  symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgiowncksync.so: undefined
  symbol: g_desktop_app_info_launch_handler_get_type

  This should be dropped from the archive, and we need to remove it on
  upgrade to oneiric too
