Description of problem: If you try to set the tab stop in preferences to something other than "1" or "4" (let's say "8", the normal one) you can't. It reverts to "1". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.2.1-3 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start meld 2. Go to edit/preferences 3. Attempt to set the tab width to "8" Actual results: Tab width apparenty set, but if you close the preferences window and re-open it you'll see that it's gone back to "1". Moreover, ~/.gconf/apps/meld says that it's "1" and even if you change that it gets reset to 1. Expected results: Should be able to set the tab width. Additional info: This is also reported upstream and fixed in 1.3. Upgrading to 1.3 will also fix this bug!
This is fixed in meld-1.3 which is now shipping, you can close this now.
