Package: gtk+3.0
Version: 3.10.7-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

On one of the raspbian jessie autobuilders I ran into the following 
error with gtk+ 3.0.

warning: failed to load external entity "../../../../examples/search-bar.c"
../xml/gtkactiongroup.xml:160: parser error : Opening and ending tag 
mismatch: refsect1 line 147 and para
</para></para>

Followed by a load of other documentation build errors. Full log at 
http://buildd.raspbian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gtk%2B3.0&arch=armhf&ver=3.10.7-1&stamp=1393397035

Googling the error showed tha ubuntu had already run into it 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1283226  ). 
Testing in a debian jessie amd64 chroot revealed that it 
(unsurprisingly) affects Debian too.

Ubuntu fixed the issue in version 3.10.7-0ubuntu3, I grabbed the patch 
for this issue out of their upload, applied it to the package from 
Debian and uploaded to raspbian. A debdiff for what I uploaded to 
raspbian can be found at 
http://debdiffs.raspbian.org/main/g/gtk%2b3.0/gtk+3.0_3.8.2-3+rpi1.debdiff 
, I have no intent to NMU this in Debian.
