Bug 105358

Summary: ethereal 0.10.12 with GTK+ 2.6.7, GLib 2.6.4 doesn't allow to scroll in results sometimes.
Product: Gentoo Linux Reporter: Clock <clock>
Component: Current packagesAssignee: Gentoo Netmon project <netmon>
Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST    
Severity: minor CC: gnome, xoen.gnu
Priority: High    
Version: 2005.1   
Hardware: All   
OS: Linux

Runtime testing required: ---

Description Clock 2005-09-09 04:01:59 UTC
See the attached screenshot. If the list of packets is long, the scrollbar fills
out the whole scrollbar space instead being just tiny. This prevents the user
from scrolling in the results.

When the boundary between packet listing window and it's lower neighbour window
is drageed, the scrollbar resets into correct function.

I don't know if this is not a result of Gentoo compiling Ethereal with
wrong GTK version, or applying unauthorized patches. I already reported one bug
of Linux kernel to LKML and they fucked me off because Gentoo applied
unauthorized console background patch. So I am reporting here and not to
Ethereal people.

If you are sure it's bug of Ethereal and not gentoo, please change the status to
upstream *and* report the bug to Ethereal folks. Thanks.

ethereal 0.10.12

Compiled with GTK+ 2.6.7, with GLib 2.6.4, with libpcap 0.8.3, with libz 1.2.3,
with libpcre 5.0, without UCD-SNMP or Net-SNMP, without ADNS.

Running with libpcap version 0.8.3 on Linux 2.6.13.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Rin Ethereal
2. Capture large amount of packets I don't know how large
3.

Actual Results:  
Can't scroll in the packets

Expected Results:  
Can scroll in the packets

Hi, GTK+ 2.6.10 and GLib 2.6.5 are stable (on x86 and amd64), have you installed?

Have you the same problems with these versions of GTK+/Glib? If no this bug can
be closed.
