Hi Nico,

As I said before, with all of the package versions listed in the bug report
above, if I have libpcre3 (8.02-1.1) (testing) and libglib2.0-0 (2.28.0-1)
(unstable) installed, openbox fails to start and segfaults with the error
messages described above.  If I only upgrade libpcre3 to version (8.12-2)
(unstable), openbox will start correctly.

The package libglib2.0-0 (2.28.0-1) itself requires libpcre3 (>7.7).  So, of
course, this could be a dependency problem of libglib2.0-0.  As I have only
experienced problems with openbox, I reported it here.  I have not tried
downgrading libglib2.0-0, but I assume that would work as well.

The problem comes from the g_regex_new() call in the function
parse_expand_tilde() in parse.c. With libpcre3 (8.02-1.1) and libglib2.0-0
(2.28.0-1) installed, the g_regex_new() call fails.  You're probably right.
 This appears to be a libglib2.0-0 problem.

Thanks for responding so quickly.

Cheers,
Chris
