Bug#192925: cdebconf-gtk-udeb: X Error when using the X target of GDK

["Sebastian Ley" <sebastian.ley@mmweg.rwth-aachen.de>]

Package: cdebconf-gtk-udeb
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-05-11
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

When adding threads support to the gtk-frontend (to be able to display
error logs in a gtk widget), a strange error occurs many X events are
generated (note the error number):

cdebconf: Fatal IO error 0 (Erfolg) on X server :0.0

An stcace reveals:
