Scrolling in a view with many files is broken

[Thomas M Steenholdt]

Scrolling up and down in a Files window, in a directory with many files, the scrolling is erratic and seems to often jump to the bottom of the view.

It happens only when scrolling while hovering the actual files (eg. using the mouse wheel). If hovering the scrollbar instead, there are no problems.

The problem is bad enough, it's basically useless to get things done.

Problem happens both in List View and Grid View

Thank you for the bug report and upstream gtk issue reference, it indeed seems to be the same problems

I'm also experiencing it in debian ubstable
