test2.c

This is tested with Ubuntu 11.04 / gtk-2.24.4

Searching for leaks for this component reveals that is has been a problem in the past aswell.

BTW: For me, it only leaks if the liststore has data-set (see attachment)

The given attachment should provide two warnings about invalid unref-ing, but for me it only provides one, which tells me that something left a reference behind.

I've done some more research. The bug doesn't occure when testing on my gentoo host using the same GTK version. So this bug is either triggered by a ubuntu patch or a theme engine.

Further I traced down the issue to be the combo-box itself. gtk_combo_box_finalize is never called if model contains data on my ubuntu host.

Further investigation gives ubuntu the blame, closing the bug-report:
