Bug Description
distribution: Ubuntu Jaunty Alpha 1
package: vim-gnome 7.2.025-2ubuntu1
bug: vim-gnome freezing from any GTK event
steps to reproduce:
1. run gvim (from terminal or from main menu)
1a. try to input or preprocess some text via internal vim commands - everything should be ok
2. try to open some gvim menu (for example, File or Syntax, but it can be any other GTK event, such like "close" dialog or something else) - in my case this action completely freeze gvim window and some other windows;
For unfreeze system, open some tty terminal, log in and run:
$ ps ax | grep gvim
to find out pid_of_gvim, and then:
$ kill -9 pid_of_gvim
after switching back for tty7, system should be unfreeze.

Description of problem:
After starting gvim, either from commandline or from the menu, gnome, or xfce, regardless, the window becomes unresponsive and the whole desktop becomes unresponsive also. Only issuing 'killall gvim' or 'kill -9 <pid>' from a VT gives me back my desktop.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
7.2.13
How reproducible:
every time
Steps to Reproduce:
1.start gvim
2.
3.
Actual results:
The window and the desktop stop responding.
Expected results:
A useful gvim window
Additional info: initial_ menus(root_ menu)]; hope it's of any help.
If it's indeed a gvim bug, since plain vim works great, from my little
programming backround i'd say it's line 508 from src/gui.c [gui_create_
