Bug Description

I just installed zinf 2.2.5-5.2 on two up-to-date egdy systems. When I try to start zinf via a terminal, all I get is

---
# zinf
(<unknown>:8221): Gdk-WARNING **: Attempt to draw a drawable with depth 16 to a drawable with depth 32

(<unknown>:8221): Gdk-WARNING **: Attempt to draw a drawable with depth 16 to a drawable with depth 32

(<unknown>:8221): Gdk-WARNING **: Attempt to draw a drawable with depth 16 to a drawable with depth 32

(<unknown>:8221): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_set_back_pixmap: assertion `pixmap == NULL || gdk_drawable_get_depth (window) == gdk_drawable_get_depth (pixmap)' failed
The program '<unknown>' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
  (Details: serial 327 error_code 8 request_code 62 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

The program doesn't start.

This still happens on Feisty.
If you export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 before you start zinf, the app doesn't crash.

This happens on Feisty when changing themes. Of course, it DOESN'T start with the above hack - export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1

That crash, with the same backtrace, happens when changing the theme. Regardless of the theme selected.
