Did you use libglade-convert to convert an old Glade app to glade-2
format?

I've just noticed a problem with this. libglade-convert doesn't output
the .gladep file which contains the project options, so it forgets it
was a GTK+ app and assumes it is a GNOME app.

To work around it you need to run libglade-convert, then open the
project in Glade and save it, then edit the .gladep file and add
"<gnome_support>FALSE</gnome_support>" under the <glade-project> tag.

That is pretty awkward though, so we'll need to figure out a better way.
