Package: vim-gnome
Version: 2:7.3.154+hg~74503f6ee649-2+b1
Severity: important

I get the following error when running gvim:

oliver at batfink:~$ gvim -u NONE -U NONE -N

(gvim:23556): Gnome-WARNING **: Accessibility: failed to find module
'libgail' which is needed to make this application accessible
**
ERROR:accessible.c:556:spi_accessible_construct: assertion failed: (o)
Vim: Caught deadly signal ABRT
Vim: Finished.
Aborted

I have the following gail packages installed, and have tried doing an
aptitude reinstall on each of them:

oliver at batfink:~$ aptitude search "~i gail"
i A libgail-3-0                    - GNOME Accessibility Implementation Libra
i A libgail-common                 - GNOME Accessibility Implementation Libra
i A libgail-gnome-module           - GNOME Accessibility Implementation Modul
i A libgail18                      - GNOME Accessibility Implementation Libra
