    Angry Gnome-control-center crash/Keyboard settings unavailable

    Running Kali Rolling 2016.2 on HP pavilion G6-1d40ca
    Upon opening gnome-control-center through terminal I used to get gtk+ warnings. Since today's update those have disappeared.
    However, when I click on the keyboard settings I still get the same errors and crash.

    I ran it in a terminal and saved the output to a log file.

    I also ran it in an strace and saved the output to a log file.

    Both logs are in the zip attached to this post.

    Let me know if anything else is needed. I don't know what to do. Cheers.

    Thanks for trying - I did the equivalent without a reboot in between since booting without a graphical environment might cause weird behavior. Booted in recovery mode, sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-core. It did not work.

    I think the issue comes from gnome-control-center and GTK, not gnome-core. Not sure however, working on installing graphics at the same time.

    Today the apt-get upgrade actually fixed the problem
