The provided URL shows the wrong file open dialog being opened. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open gvim-7.2 2. try opening a file Actual Results: Old gtk-file-open dialog pops up. Expected Results: The proper GNOME file open dialog should appear. emerge --info: Portage 2.2_rc8 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.2.4, glibc-2.8_p20080602-r0, 2.6.26-gentoo x86_64)

Still the same problem with gvim-7.2.021
Same here. Has someone an idea how to get the old behavior back?
(In reply to comment #2) > Same here. Has someone an idea how to get the old behavior back? According to an IRC conversation with jamessan on #vim... (03:35:41 PM) jamessan: HorizonXP: it's not a Gentoo bug. the new Gtk dialogs would cause Vim to excessively write out the "Recently Used files" file (like every time you pressed a key), so Bram switched back to the old dialogs So the only solution is to revert to a pre-7.2 version. Or, wait until it's fixed upstream.
Sorry, wish I could edit my comment, but here's the link to Bram's patch: http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/patches/7.2b/7.2b.026
