can't typeahead in the fileselector anymore with gtk 3.16

[Sebastien Bacher]

Using gtk 3.16 in vivid, typing a letter in a fileselector dialog doesn't select the correspond file or folder, that's known upstream as https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748672

We might get it back by reverting https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=8f9c8120b9d8a4cfa9ed1777da37f7a2d618a3a6 with maybe some extra commits needed (e.g https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=71bd1c7e2c5252b5103bf029e437787e0a002951)

Is this going to be backported to gtk 3.14 in vivid? That shows the exact same (irritating) problem, without type-ahead things are pretty much broken for keyboard-oriented users. Thanks for spotting and fixing this!

---------------
gtk+3.0 (3.16.4-2ubuntu1) wily; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian. Remaining changes:
    + Enable Mir backend.
    + Drop 022_disable-viqr-im-for-vi-locale.patch
    + Drop 061_multiarch_module_fallback.patch - unneeded in Ubuntu since we
      cleared all old gtk modules out.
    + Install the settings.ini file to set our themes.
    + Enable parallel builds
    + Ubuntu specific patches:
      - 073_treeview_almost_fixed.patch
      - 074_eventbox_scroll_mask.patch
      - bzg_gtkcellrenderer_grabbing_modifier.patch
      - ubuntu_gtk_custom_menu_items.patch

      - 0001-gtk-reftest-Force-icon-theme-to-Adwaita.patch
    + Add Breaks on gnome-shell << 3.16 - this needs to be updated at the same
      time.
    + Add Breaks on old overlay-scrollbar versions which still provided the gtk3
      module - we don't want to use this any more with GTK 3.16.
    + Update Mir backend from upstream git.

gtk+3.0 (3.16.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Merge changes from 3.14.13-1.
  * debian/README.Debian:
    + Removed, that's for gtk+2.0. Closes: #622913.
  * debian/control.in:
    + Drop versioned dependency on pkg-config. The version is satisfied
      in oldstable and that helps other packages that provide pkg-config.
      Closes: #734481.
  * Upload to unstable.

gtk+3.0 (3.16.4-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Iain Lane ]
  * build with --fail-missing when doing an indep build
  * Install some utilities and missing icons, desktop files and manpages into
    gtk-3-examples (for want of a better package).
  * clean up reftest known_fail files in clean target which we create in
    pre-build

  [ Emilio Pozuelo Monfort ]
  * New upstream release.
