The current problem with orbit2 is an additional (different) bug of  
the same type as the glib2 problem -- there is a patch but Im waiting  
to hear from the patch authour before I try it.  If you have a clean  
instalation you have nothing to loose by trying it though.  :) good  
luck and let us know if you do.
