ubuntu error with librgba.so when using ' git commit --amend '

Question

Getting this error on my ubuntu 10.04 box:

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "rgba": librgba.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory    

.. this is an alpha / coloring directory used with the command line ( to color things )

This particular error message pops up with git as well as when programming my arduino

Answer 1

looks like a problem with display. Try a different desktop or reinstall same one.

Answer 2

It appears to be because of an unofficial Gtk transparency PPA. If that's the case try reverting back to the supported packages.

Answer 3

On ubuntu console:

'sudo synaptic'

In synaptic GUI:
1. click “Origin” ( lower left)
2. select LP-PPA-erik-b-andersen-rgba-gtk/lucid ( upper left )
3. For each of the following packages (located top right )

gtk2-engines-murrine
gtk2-module.rgba
libnautilus-extension-dev
murrine-themes
nautilus
nautilus-data

do this:

-select package
-MENU>>Package>>Force Version ( ctrl+e )
-select package with 'ppa1' in the name
-click 'force version'

.....after all packages are selected to be running.....

4. click 'apply'

You should now no longer get the annoying error:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "rgba": librgba.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
