Description Marco Pesenti Gritti 2007-09-20 18:12:42 UTC 
The following snippet of code doesn't emit a destroy signal. It works fine with pygobject 2.13.

import gtk

def destroy_cb(widget):
    print 'Destroy'

label = gtk.Label()
label.connect('destroy', destroy_cb)
del label

import gc
while gc.collect(): pass

gtk.main()

We will not release 2.12 anymore and it works with trunk.  Closing.
