Description Fryderyk Dziarmagowski 2005-08-05 19:41:13 UTC 
Distribution/Version: PLD Linux Distribution

after upgrading to 2.6.9 i'm not able to make a selection in Epiphany
"Bookmarks" submenus. Some gnome-panel applets (like mixer) are not selectable
until another gtk app will be started.
running in terminal:
(epiphany:23376): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion
`G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

(epiphany:23376): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_group_remove_window: assertion
`GTK_IS_WINDOW_GROUP (window_group)' failed

(epiphany:23466): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped
in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)
(i'm getting same warnnig with gnome-terminal since 2.6.8)

downgrading to 2.6.8 solves that strange behaviour.
Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2005-08-05 20:51:32 UTC 
If we decide to do a 2.6.10, we should either revert

2005-06-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* gtk/gtkmenu.c (gtk_menu_grab_notify): Cancel menus when
	they are grab-shadowed by something thats not a
	submenu.  (#145416, Euan MacGregor)


or backport the additional fix we have on HEAD.
Comment 2 Zach Borgerding 2005-08-07 01:25:29 UTC 
I can confirm this behavior on my system.

Comment 6 linuce 2005-08-15 21:18:18 UTC 
Just for the record : I only use GTK+2/GNOME applications and I have noticed
that GTK+ 2.6.9 seems to only break Epiphany. Is there any reason or any others
applications concerned with this bug ?
Comment 7 Matthias Clasen 2005-08-15 22:38:39 UTC 
Epiphany is one of the very few apps to use window groups, which triggers the
problem.
Comment 8 Matthias Clasen 2005-08-16 11:25:40 UTC 
I backported the 2.8 fix some days ago.
