I just checked the main repository, and I have the latest version of everything else too. I don't know if it's related, but VLC has a similar problem (similar in my opinion because I think they're both Python-GTK, please correct me if I'm wrong):

awm10@awm10-Lemur-Ultra:~$ vlc

Hope that helps for something.
