Bug#440165: libgtk2.0-dev: [regression] 2.11.6 breaks non-gtk browsers thru flash plugin

[Sune Vuorela]

Package: libgtk2.0-dev
Version: 2.11.6-1
Severity: important


Hi!

Short summary:
If gtk 2.11.6 is installed, it makes non-gtk browsers freeze and take
100% cpu when trying to use adobe flashplugin. At least according to
suse people, 2.11.5 is not affected. Current unstable version, 2.10.13-1
is definately not affected.

There is a testcase at:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=294385#c58 - and the general
bug log tells about some of the implications.

It seems upstream has a bug report here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=463773 
which seems to tell about a fix committed somewhere, but without many
pointers to locate and test the fix.
