Bug 19084 – gtk+ 2.2.1 gtktreeview.c patch (Fixes Eclipse 2.1 deadlocks)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description A Kappen 2003-04-10 11:51:51 UTC]

A subtle bug in gtk+ 2.2.1 causes deadlocks when running Eclipse 2.1; the
Eclipse bug report can be found at:
http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=31525

RedHat's bugzilla has a patch to fix the problem at:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=90407&action=view

While patching this locally is trivial, a real ebuild would be beneficial to all
Eclipse 2.1 users.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Upgrade to gtk+ 2.2.1
2.Start Eclipse 2.1
3.Watch the CPU hit 100%

Actual Results:  
CPU pegged at 100%
- Resizing a deadlocked dialog can sometimes recover control
- Clicking on the top node in a tree (like Package Explorer) can stop the CPU
pegging temporarily

yes i was made aware of this patch, but i was/am a bit reluctant to add it for one application.

gtk+-2.2.1-r1 is in ~ with patch.

made eclipse also depend on at least this version of gtk+ .
