we do not support gtk-2.3.0 please use a std released stable gtk version.

And best of all it seems gtk-2.3.0 doesn't even compile here.

In the mean time I checked my code and found nothing wrong.

.. apart from that its a "-test" kernel. Well, I see the point of having an
unstable testing system but don't complain to us about it ;-)

ok ok ok,
listen people, now i almost have to raise my voice here.

just a small cut'n'paste from your requirements section:

GTK+ >= 2.0.6 (also dev packages)

i am very aware that i am not running "stable" gtk+ or a "stable" kernel,
but really, any cracks about me running a 2.6 kernel are waaay off-base.

the reason i reported these BUGS are that they SHOULD be of interest to
you, as developers, because they indicate that there is something strange
happening here. for some strange reason, i thought you would find it
remotely interesting that your code might, and i stress might, not be
totally compatible with the next gtk version.

if i have burdened you in any way trying to be helpful and sending in a
bugreport, i apologize sincerely and will not do so in the future.

regards.
