Test GTK+ 3.20.8 Fedora build

When you plan to stop practising gaffes like this, breaking a stable API?

Yes, I can see the issue. 

Thanks for the patch. I will test it out and push an update as needed.

Do not worry,
you probably won't push any patch related, particularly not "as needed" one. ;)

I did not (nor is it possible to) open EVERY SINGLE window in every single program in the entire system to test an update.

Stop the snarky tone. You have provided a patch, I will test it and update it when I get back. Stop will all the nonsense you are doing here. You are repeating the same thing you did with Xfce 4.11 release. Just stop.

Bugs in software happen. It is unavoidable. If you cannot stand that, I suggest that you stay away from using ANY software. In this case, a change in GTK3 "broke" something in xfpm. It happens! Sometimes, breakages happen. It's unavoidable!

Also, looking at the patches, there is nothing I can do. component is reassigned o gtk3 ..

Bugzilla history says I wasn't here before you asked what I was doing here. cya

It is difficult to accept that you are doing wrong, right.

cya ;)

Besides, devs of both upstream should deal with GTK+ crap like this, in the first place.

Thanks for attention,
Elvis has left the building.

The link doesn't go to a screencast. Instead of going on rants, provide a working link, then I'll have a look.
