GLib-GIO-WARNING **: Missing callback called fullpath

[peterzay]

I got the following message during an update to grub on Ubuntu 12.04. Is it serious?

xxx@yyy:~$ sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[sudo] password for xxx:

(gedit:2540): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: Missing callback called fullpath = /root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel

You got the message from gedit, not grub.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Whenever I open up something in GEdit, but not always - this message shows up. I've noticed a tendancy for it to say the warning again whenever you save something though.

[Amndeep Singh Mann (amndeep-vass)]

Just an update, I think it shows up when you have `sudo` before it: `sudo gedit`, like when you'd be editing a config file.

Sorry for spamming guys, but I think if you use gksudo instead, it works fine.
