[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

Confirmed; I saw this error on Ubuntu Intrepid.

[Cesare Tirabassi (norsetto)]

Looks like this is a bug which should be properly addressed in libgtk2.0 though, please see bug 247909.

[Maciej Piechotka (uzytkownik2)]

Also met in Gentoo.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Since this is really a bug in GTK, I'm closing the upstream task.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Will upload in a bit.

Already fixed by ishmal in trunk SVN (r19808). The thing won't probably change in gtk in the next future, so we need to change our code here. It should be safely backported to the 0.46.1 branch...
