Preferences Plugins not scrolling properly

[Spindizzy]

REPRODUCING:

1) Start Calibre

2) Click Preferences.

3) Under 'Advanced', click Plugins.

4) Expand the plugin categories.

5) Select the topmost plugin.

6) Use the down-arrow key to scroll to the bottom of the list.

OBSERVED BEHAVIOR: The currently selected plugin will often not be visible. The first section may work ok, so keep going to the bottom to make sure you see the effect. When it happens, it seems that it doesn't move the list until after the third down-arrow click. Then it jumps to the correct position.

DESIRED BEHAVIOR: When the currently selected plugin changes, the list should move to ensure that it is visible.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Oddly enough, if you start at the bottom of the list, and use up-arrow to scroll up, it works perfectly.

Hello Spindizzy,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Calibre. You made this bug report in 2012 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Calibre since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug?
If you are, could you let us know and, in the current version, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 926951
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Calibre better.
