Hmm.

I assume that's i386?

That's a contradiction. How do you keep it up-to-date? From unstable?

Most probably  not. Then again, I needed some tricks to get it to build
(whcih I did because it was a security update....)

Can you also try 2.3.0? I don't care about 2.2.1-x anymore.

I don't believe this happens for "normal" sid users as I guess then
there would have been a report earlier, and it works for me, too.

And next time *please* use reportbug or anything whihc provides useful
info if you can't do that alone (arch, apt conf, installed packages,
whether you use GNOME nd have -gtk installed, etc...)
