Could you please give me more information on your configuration ?

Solaris version, platform version ?

Actually i cannot reproduce this bug on my box. I don\'t know yet if it is a packaging issue or a xfce bug

It IS undefined . . . this is a diff between the symbol tables for the blastwave xfce_desktop_menu.so and a locally compiled copy (using 4.2.3). HTH . . .

Last note :-)

Re-compiling the 4.2.1 version of xfdesktop and then replacing the xfce4_desktop_menu libraries fixes this. My guess would be a packaging error on blastwave.org :-(
