[...] The problem is that you're running a process which uses both libgnome-desktop-3-10 and libgnome-desktop-3-12 at the same time (via gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0). You should only use one of them at a time. You installed from experimental and that means you need to handle this transition on your own: https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-gnome-desktop3.html Alternatively, you could downgrade gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0 to the version in unstable until the transition is started. We're currently discussing making it impossible for users to shoot themselves in the foot in a future partial upgrade by prohibiting partial upgrades. That would also prevent people blindly installing things from experimental (as it would simply become impossible, unless you've done your local rebuilds for the transition). Regards, Andreas Henriksson
