The reason building from source doesn't fix this issue (at present) is because the issue is in Debian Ubuntu systems only, and the workaround is a Debian Ubuntu specific fix. First of all, I'm going to recommend downloading an installing the version you couldn't find (0.90+20120127-3). Installing these packages should create the necessary gnubg.desktop file so that when launched from a gnome3/unity menu it should work properly. You must download gnubg and gnubg-data from these locations:
Once these are installed you should be able to launch GNUBG through the GUI using the menus/icons, and there should now be a /usr/share/applications/gnubg.desktop that contains Exec=env LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 gnubg -w .
If you are rolling your own build from source you must alter how you launch GNUBG. For example if you rolled your own build from source, you could launch from the source directory using:
LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 ./gnubg
or if you installed GNUBG from source (and did a 'make install' to the default /usr/local) directory you can launch GNUBG like this:
Hi VF,
The reason building from source doesn't fix this issue (at present) is because the issue is in Debian Ubuntu systems only, and the workaround is a Debian Ubuntu specific fix. First of all, I'm going to recommend downloading an installing the version you couldn't find (0.90+20120127-3). Installing these packages should create the necessary gnubg.desktop file so that when launched from a gnome3/unity menu it should work properly. You must download gnubg and gnubg-data from these locations:
http:// launchpadlibrar ian.net/ 103709007/ gnubg_0. 90%2B20120127- 3_amd64. deb launchpadlibrar ian.net/ 103697408/ gnubg-data_ 0.90%2B20120127 -3_all. deb

After downloading you can install them from the command line using:
sudo dpkg -i gnubg-data_ 0.90+20120127- 3_all.deb gnubg_0. 90+20120127- 3_amd64. deb
Once these are installed you should be able to launch GNUBG through the GUI using the menus/icons, and there should now be a /usr/share/ applications/ gnubg.desktop that contains Exec=env LIBOVERLAY_ SCROLLBAR= 0 gnubg -w .

or if you installed GNUBG from source (and did a 'make install' to the default /usr/local) directory you can launch GNUBG like this:

Let me know how you make out.
