Description of problem: When selecting text on rawhide, I get odd vertical bars in the selection (see attached screenshot: gtkpipes.png). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtk2-2.8.12-7.1.i386 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Eclipse 2. Create a new Java Project and inside it create a new Class allowing for the pre-stubbed main method 3. Highlight the main method Actual results: See attached Expected results: Clean selection highlight Additional info: I'm assuming this is an upstream bug but I wanted to get it documented here as well. I will now try to find a reference bug upstream.

Adding upstream reference.
Since I have not seen such drawing errors with any other GtkTextView-using apps in rawhide, I have to assume that eclipse is doing something odd here. Are you inserting any strange (ie control) characters at word boundaries ?
See this bug for some characters used by Eclipse: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324621 However, that's not a GtkTextView, so bugs in the selection drawing may be bugs in Eclipse (exposed by certain pango versions). Probably should be first investigated upstream.
Changing references upstream bugs.
This problem got tracked down to floating point environment differences. Possible fix is planned for pango 1.12.2
This appears to be fixed in pango 1.13.0 according to the changelog.
Billy, Andrew, can you confirm that this is fixed with pango 1.13 ?
I just tested with rawhide and it's fixed with pango 1.13.
