Bug Description

I'm getting this everytime I run apt-get:

***MEMORY-WARNING***: gnome-terminal[9090]: GSlice: g_thread_init() must be called before all other GLib functions; memory corruption due to late invocation of g_thread_init() has been detected; this program is likely to crash, leak or unexpectedly abort soon...

gnome-terminal is a child of the apt-listchanges process.

root 9019 8526 0 10:03 pts/0 00:00:00 apt-get upgrade
root 9074 9019 0 10:04 pts/0 00:00:00 /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/apt-listchanges --apt || test $? -ne 10
root 9075 9074 0 10:04 pts/0 00:00:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/apt-listchanges --apt
root 9088 9075 0 10:04 pts/0 00:00:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/apt-listchanges --apt
root 9089 9088 0 10:04 pts/0 00:00:00 sh -c x-terminal-emulator -T apt-listchanges -e sensible-pager /tmp/tmpGoM_W0
root 9090 9089 0 10:04 pts/0 00:00:00 gnome-terminal -t apt-listchanges -x sensible-pager /tmp/tmpGoM_W0

My apologies if this is should go to gnome-terminal, but it seems specific to the apt-listchanges initiation of the process.

Thanks
