AboutDialog Close button doesn't work
Last modified: 2006-05-10 12:28:38 UTC
Some AboutDialog instances don't close when the Close button is pressed. I noticed this with my PyGTK application. It works well with 2.8. I suppose it's not pygtk-specific, since the "Contacts" applications (see http://chrislord.net/blog/Software/Contacts/) suffers from the same problem here...
This is a documented change in 2.9/2.10, since the old behaviour was inconsistent. Either use the convenience api that handles the dialog lifecycle for you, or handle the response yourself.
it is documented in the 2.10 section of the README, btw
