Description of problem:
When I hover my mouse over the buttons near the top of the window ("Load iPod",
etc.), a tooltip window flashes on the screen then disappears perhaps a tenth of
a second later. The tooltip window is not on the screen long enough to read its
contents.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gtkpod-0.99.12-1.fc8.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hover mouse over "Load iPod(s)" button.
  
Actual results:
Tooltip flashes on screen, too fast to read.

Expected results:
Tooltip remains on screen until I move the mouse.

Hi Joe,

This is known upstream.  It's an issue that affects building with gtk+ 2.12. 
The tooltip API in gtk+ was updated and the older API was deprecated.  AFAIK,
the older API is supposed to still work, but in the case of gtkpod and some
other apps, it doesn't work so well, which results in the flashing tooltips.

The other improvements in gtkpod 0.99.12 seemed worthy enough to warrant the
update even with this known problem.  I will endeavor to get this fixed up
sometime this week if possible.  I know it's annoying.

I've had no luck in actually fixing this bug.  I have asked for some help on the
gtkpod-devel list and no one there replied. :(

I have filed a bug in the upstream tracker in the hopes that it will get some
attention.

I have seen a similar problem in a small pygtk app that I wrote, which makes me
think this might be a bug in gtk+ or glib.  But that sadly has not gotten me any
closer to a solution.

Joe,

This problem seems to have been resolved with a recent update (I believe it was
glib2 or gtk2 that fixed it, but I have not tested to see exactly which update
corrected it).

Can you confirm or deny if the problem is still present in an up to date
F9?

Hey Joe,

Jorg believes he has found and fixed this problem upstream.  It has not
been reproducible for me for quite a while, but if it still occurs for
you, perhaps you'd like to test some packages with the patch and let me
know if it indeed fixes the problem?

I've built updated gtkpod packages for F9 and F10, x86_64 only, as
that's what arch you had the problems on.

F-9: http://tmz.fedorapeople.org/tmp/gtkpod-0.99.12-2.fc9.1.x86_64/
F-10: http://tmz.fedorapeople.org/tmp/gtkpod-0.99.12-3.fc10.1.x86_64/

There are SHA1SUM files included.  The SHA1SUM file and packages are
signed with my gpg key, 0xBEAF0CE3: http://tmz.fedorapeople.org/repo
/RPM-GPG-KEY-tmz

Upstream is set to release 0.99.14 in the next few days, but it might be
a bit until we get that and the updated libgpod into the stable releases
due to the libgpod changing the API since the last release.  So if this
patch does fix things, it'd be good to push it out in the interim.

Thanks, and sorry for the long delay.  (Wow, it's been a year and a day
since your initial report.)
