Description penumbra.scilicet 2014-09-25 10:13:32 UTC 
After doing a 3-way merge with meld on git, the file refuses to save. Terminal dump returns this:

Traceback (most recent call last):

What version of GTK is this, and are you using any specific theme or theme tweaks?
Comment 2 Kai Willadsen 2014-09-29 21:03:24 UTC 
*** Bug 737441 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 3 Kai Willadsen 2014-09-29 21:04:38 UTC 
This should be 'fixed' in Meld 3.12, though I have yet to figure out how it has actually happened, so I'm leaving this open for now.
Comment 4 valere.monseur 2014-09-30 20:51:49 UTC 
Yes, it's fixed, thanks.
And I've seen your comment as well in the code ;-)

If you need me to make some investigations, please let me know where I to start.
Comment 5 penumbra.scilicet 2014-09-30 21:24:07 UTC 
Yep. Also resolved for me after updating to 3.12 :) Thanks for the quick fix.
Comment 6 Kai Willadsen 2014-10-02 21:12:44 UTC 
For posterity, this is just GTK screwing with me... again... in 3.14. The 'fix' is the correct one. Thanks for the bug reports.
