Description Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-31 14:50:40 UTC
GTK+2.6.1 has a flaw which causes applications that are displayed have an infinite loop without a reponse handler.  This causes a hang.  Currently, Evolution 2.0.3 has an outstanding bug caused by this.  The attached patch fixes this issue.

where does the patch come from ? upstream bug(s) ? How to reproduce it ?
Comment 3 Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-31 15:22:38 UTC
*SIGH* I swear I wrote it in :-(.  The patch is pulled from GTK+ CVS Head. Sorry about that.

i guessed as much, but that requires me to do the work and find out. I don't apply patches on a guess basis. We need to see where it comes from and you really gave & give no clue so far. You obviously know about an issue that we are not aware of, then i guess you know where to find the appropriate upstream tracker as well.
