Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.24.24-1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear GTK2 Maintainers,
since I upgraded a couple of days ago libgtk2 packages I cannot use any
of the gtk2 applications I tried (for example: mirage, reportbug,
exaile).
These are the messages I get:
$ mirage
Gtk-Message: (for origin information, set GTK_DEBUG): failed to retrieve
property `gtk-toolbar-icon-size' of type `GtkIconSize' from rc file value
GTK_ICON_SIZE_SMALL_TOOLBAR of type `GtkIconSize'
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mirage.py:608: Warning: The property
GtkWindow:allow-shrink is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. It will be
removed in a future version.
self.window.set_property('allow-shrink', False)

Segmentation fault
I searched the internet and I found many links, like this for mirage in
fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1123953 (but the
advice to comment out the gtk.gdk.threads_init() in mirage's code
doesn't seem a thorough solution, even if it solves the mirage
problem. 'Solves' as in 'mirage does not segfault').
I think I found the solution in this precise message in a reportbug bug
report, here in the BTS:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=758619#114
that has a patch for gdk.c in libgtk, in a function related to threads.
I'm not an expert packager, but I wanted to try to download the sources
and rebuild the packages after patching gdk.c, and I confirm that in my
system the above linked patch works. What I did was:
* apt-get source libgtk2.0-0
* apt-get build-dep libgtk2.0-0
* [Patch the file]
* dpkg-source --commit (but as I'm not an expert, I didn't manage to
bump the version of my package)
* debuild -us -uc
And then I installed with dpkg the binary packages I already had in my
debian box.
After this procedure, the bugs of the three application I tried are
solved.
Kind regards,
Mark
P.S.: obviously right now I have installed the patched packages, but the
version numbers are the same as the official jessie ones because of me
not being able to somewhat bump them.
