Firefox Broke

I am using SUSE 10.0 and just did some upgrades on gnome and now my Firefox is broke. I get the following:

/opt/MozillaFirefox/lib/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /opt/gnome/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_object_compat_control

So how do I get it fixed. I checked deleting it and re-install but other programs are dependant on it.

What happens if you download the latest firefox.tar.gz, extract it and run the executable firefox script? Does this one work?

I discovered that a lot of programs are broke (ie sane, gimp, nvu, firefox) that use the libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0. So I downgraded to gtk2-2.8.3-4.i586.rpm and now all is well.
