Bug#318549: libvte4: gtk-warnings

[Emil Nowak]

Package: libvte4
Version: 1:0.11.13-2
Severity: normal

All libvte4 based applications produces gtk-warnings. For example:

(gnome-terminal:2167): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)

(grip:3623): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)

(gtkterm:3657): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)

all those messages are repeated multiple times.

This shows gnome-terminal with stoped at this warning:
