Actually I got the same problem with the SuSE rpm's from 
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/gnome-1.0.53/suse/i386/

I deinstalled everything on my SuSE 6.2 distro that had
to do with GNOME and installed all the files from the above
FTP directory.

Anybody, what's wrong with these rpm's?

By the way: For the packagers of the above mentioned rpm's.
The package libglade-0.7-1.i386.rpm of the FTP-site has another
name in SuSE 6.2 Distro. There it is called libglad-something.rpm
(missing e).
So, if someone still has the old (original) SuSE libglad-...
installed, rpm yelds an error when trieing to rpm -Uvh
libglade-0.7-1.i386.rpm
because files with the same name exist in another package.
Perhaps, it is possible the change that?
