[Bug 964694] Re: 12.04 Beta 2 gparted won't run

[jerrylamos]

Curtis, thanks, your suggestion worked.  
That wasn't the lib that gparted said was missing.
As far as I can remember any time I've installed gparted there were lib called out to be installed too.  Not this time, so re-installing the lib fixed it.  Any way for us users to know what lib to re-install?
Appreciate the help.  My only recourse would have been to install ubuntu again.
Here's the log:

  jerry at Aspire1:~$ sudo gparted
  /usr/sbin/gpartedbin: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkmm-2.4.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

  Looks to me like apt-get install gparted did not load the library
  libgtkmm-2.4.so.1

  Tried synaptic re-install of gparted.  Same problem.

  Anything to do to get gparted running?

  Thanks, Jerry
