I get this error on the console where I run Boxee:

sh: symbol lookup error: ./bxoverride.so: undefined symbol: g_wrapper

not sure what functionality is effected by it.

Note:
Running on Debian Lenny.

if you don't mind my asking, what about it do you find 'suspicious'?

it's suspicious that compiled code is missing something at runtime.
it's an indication of a problem.

i'm sorry, i took suspicious to mean:
boxee's behavior is suspect--ie: boxee is behaving with malicious intentions.

i see what you're saying, now. :)

(interesting side note: i just found out malintent isn't really a word... i'm having a bad vocabulary day.)
