I lost  some  of the gnome icons !
here's how, hope someone can explain to me what happened!

xchat2 was segfaulting, so i dispelled and casted xchat. I was inside KDE at 
the time.

xchat is not in the grimoire anymore, but it was still in the cache. In the 
process, a few things got dispelled (why?), in particular gnome-panel and 
gnome-session.

I was the told how to solve the xchat issue, so i dispelled xchat and casted 
xchat2 again. I'm still in kde.

since the dispelling of gnome-session was wierd, i logged into gnome. And it 
doesnt start gnome2. Whatever i got into looked exactly like gnome1.4 
(including sawfish wm)

i exited X, casted gnome-session and gnome-desktop, start gnome again. Now it 
starts gnome2, metacity, etc. But the gnome-terminal and exit-session icons 
are gone and i get error messages accordingly.
It turns out that gnome-terminal is missing!, so i cast gnome-terminal, cast 
the desktop-profile again. Then i log into gnome, the terminal is there, but 
the exit-session the gnome (foot) and a world icon are missing (at least 
those).
I'm also getting a few things broken on a cast --fix
gnomexmms is broken
later it dispels once more gnome-session/panel/terminal...


I dont think this qualifies as a bug, since the xchat spell isnt there 
anymore... but yet, why does dispelling xchat2, and casting xchat would mess 
things so much?, libraries are supposed to be compatible.

sorry for the long post
