[PATCH] Listen for file-set and not selection-changed. (1.24 KB, patch)
2008-08-10 05:24 UTC, Diego Escalante Urrelo (not reading bugmail) 		committed Details | Review

Description Pedro Villavicencio 2008-02-25 15:20:17 UTC 
This bug has been filed here:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat-gnome/+bug/192967

"Steps to reproduce the bug:
 1. Open xchat-gnome
 2. Open the preferences window (Edit→Preferences)
 3. The CPU using is about 100%"

"it seems that there's a loop on the Effects option (look at the background image button which opens a filechooser)"

Thanks,
Comment 1 Jacob Peddicord 2008-03-04 03:07:34 UTC 
I can confirm this behavior. It makes it nearly impossible to leave the Preferences window open for too long.
Comment 2 Michael Budde 2008-05-04 09:37:41 UTC 
I can also confirm this. The background image button text changes between "(none)" and the selected picture name. Also clicking on the button makes the 100% CPU usage stop.

Confirmed, also reported here in Debian:
