Summary0002584: startup ... SVN 4838 'failed_constructor'
Descriptionashes on startup.. I admit that as I am a Gentoo user I am using "syslibs" so if this is syslibs related close the case and let me know.. and I will just need to wait until compatible again.. last part of output from startup is below... let me know if there is any more information you need..

Can you run ardour under gdb and get a backtrace?

 Now this is really strange. Ardour runs fine in gdb, although the theme is ignored
maybe it has something to do with this line:

(ardour-3.0:20104): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "clearlooks"

Note that I'm using Kubuntu Jaunty, which overrides the gtk themes/styles by default.

This is without gdb:

P.S.: why does it say VST_PATH not set although I compiled without VST?
