tab spacing preferences are not persistent

[Eric Morgan]

Binary package hint: gedit

Whenever I set the tab spaces to 2, the next time I launch gedit, it's back to 4. I am getting a TON of this kind of stuff with other packages in Lucid though.

I posted too soon. I seems it changes back to 4 at random intervals during the same session... Wow, frustrating!

Thank you for your bug report. The issue is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug the to the people writting the software (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME)

Eric (and anyone else affected),

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and GNOME since that time.

Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) reached end-of-life on May 9, 2013.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a currently supported version of Ubuntu?

Please let us know if you do otherwise this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
