crash on new/open/import project

Hi, new user of pgadmin. Trying v. 1.2.17 on fresh install of ubuntu 10.10
(maverick).
When I start the program and try to import, open, or create a new project,
pgadmin immediately crashes, giving the following message:

"This application has raised and unexpected error and must abort. [29]
Invalid object. CApp.MenuProjectUpdate.1435.

WHen I start it from console, it types out

>

It is a different message than the linux bug described in the FAQ. Also, I
have no package by the name of gtk-qt-engine available, either installed or
in the repository.

Also a suggestion: on startup, default the focus of the language selector to
[ok] rather than [cancel] and have the program remember the choice.

Thanks,

Hope this is an ok bug report.
