This was my workaround to this problem:
 
1. /etc/apt/sources.list
 
  deb ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
  deb-src ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
 
2.  update the package database
 
  sudo apt-get update
 
3.  download the source code
 
  cd /tmp
  mkdir pygobject
  apt-get source python-gi
 
4.  install dependecies
 
  sudo apt-get build-dep python-gi
  sudo apt-get install python-gobject-2-dbg
 
5.  compile python-gi
 
  cd pygobject-3.2.0
  wget -c http://mkaufmann.com.ar/~humitos/olpc/pygi-d37680bb9390426f7f58ea3d352c3e5e2106e978_modified.patch
  git apply pygi-d37680bb9390426f7f58ea3d352c3e5e2106e978_modified.patch
  dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b
 
6.  install compiled packages
 
  sudo dpkg -i ../*.deb
 
Now, when I run "./sugar-jhbuild run sugar-emulator" I can see the
icons and the toolbar properly.
= Testing =
Where Debian is installed via the Debian installer or virtual machine Sugar has been reported to run nicely.
:sugar 0.88.0 works nicely in Debian squeeze
Low footprint versions (eg no Gnome Display Manager) with SLiM and Openbox only, have been reported to cause a problem. [[User:Inkyfingers/Debian ]], Jun 23 2012
