You're using Mageia 1 then? I didn't know (assume -dev = Cauldron
people), but the bugreport is from 2009, so it should've been fixed
already in Mageia 1. In any case, such error messages are not just for
informational purposes; they might not cause user visible problems, but
they do indicate a programming error.

Yes, I know who he is as well as others who replied. Anyway, it appears
he understands the cause and that it won't have impact. So there still
is a bug (comment 3). I'm guessing it is a theme engine causing this
though (in which case you won't notice in Cauldron), not anything in
gtk+ or transmission.

Thanks, also check with a different theme if you could.
