Synaptic, with errors on the side !

[David J Patrick]

I'm running ubuntu "Hoary" and while upgrading, via Synaptic, a critical 
error flashes past. I /hate/ those ! how come I never get "unimportant 
errors" ?

as seen in terminal output of synaptic;
===============
Setting up gnome-system-monitor (2.9.91-0ubuntu1) ...

** (process:18091): CRITICAL **: egg_desktop_entries_add_group: 
assertion `egg_desktop_entries_lookup_group (entries, group_name) == 
NULL' failed

** (process:18091): CRITICAL **: egg_desktop_entries_add_group: 
assertion `egg_desktop_entries_lookup_group (entries, group_name) == 
NULL' failed

** (process:18091): CRITICAL **: egg_desktop_entries_add_group: 
assertion `egg_desktop_entries_lookup_group (entries, group_name) == 
NULL' failed
===============
and it moves on to other, non-broken stuff.

"egg_desktop_entries" cracked ?
will I have to use the shell ?
yolks on me ?
is my system souffle ?
omletting it bug me !
can someone help me keep the sunny side up ?
