Bug Description

Impact: some optional libraries loaded by glade interface can't be found leading to non working uis

Test Case: install and run gurlchecker
without the patch the toolbar has no icon, with the fixed version it's working

Regression Potential: very limited, the patch is only adding an extra check for the fallback directory in the error case

---

Since upgrading to Precise Pangolin on an x86_64 system, some applications are failing with messages like the following:

libglade-WARNING **: Could not load support for `bonobo': libbonobo.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The problem is libbonoboui2-0 and libgnomecanvas2-0 place shared libraries in /usr/lib/libglade/2.0/ but libglade2-0 expects to find them in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglade/2.0/.

ok, confirmed, setting low because those libraries are deprecated for years and very few softwares use them still
