Comment 1 Jens Granseuer 2007-07-15 18:05:13 UTC 
What version is that? From the warning message, it looks like the appearance.glade file might not be properly installed.
Comment 2 Graham Forest 2007-07-15 19:28:28 UTC 
It's version 2.19.5

sha1sum:
0f80440a822b5c73c618dd38435016a5e75169de  /usr/share/gnome-control-center/glade/appearance.glade

The version of appearance.glade tagged as 2.19.5 gives me

Comment 4 Graham Forest 2007-07-17 07:00:42 UTC 
Looks like replacing it with the vanilla one that matches your sha1 fixes the issue.

Thanks for the help, I'll report it downstream.

I just uploaded a fix to Ubuntu - it was not GNOME breakage after all.

gnome-control-center (1:2.19.5-0ubuntu2) gutsy; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/95_desktop-effects-integration.patch: re-updated, fixed
    patch conflicts. (LP: #125900), (LP: #126192), (LP: #126376), (LP: #126498) 
  * ./95_desktop-effects-integration.patch, ./99_autoreconf.patch: dropped.
  * debian/capplets-data.install: don't try to install 
    debian/tmp/usr/share/gnome-control-center/icons - they're gone.
