Looks like either way something will be broken. During my `cleanse --fix`:
Building libgnomeui
...
checking for LIBGNOMEUI... configure: error: Package requirements (   
libxml-2.0 >= 2.4.20   libgnome-2.0 >= 2.13.7   libgnomecanvas-2.0 >=  
2.0.0   libbonoboui-2.0 >= 2.13.1   gconf-2.0 >= 1.1.11   pango >=  
1.1.2   glib-2.0 >= 2.15.0
   gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.7.3   gnome-keyring-1 >= 0.4) were not met:

Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.15.0' but version of GLib is 2.14.6

Looks like libgnomeui (and probably other parts of the new GNOME) need  
glib2 2.15+, but glibmm needs 2.14-.
