Comment 1 Matthew Barnes 2013-06-27 10:05:25 EDT

This is a GTK+ issue:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581050

Something to do with the interaction between GtkStatusIcon and GtkTreeView.

Never got fully investigated by GTK+ maintainers.  We stopped using GtkStatusIcon about the time we ported to gtk3 and the problem went away on its own.

Comment 2 Milan Crha 2013-09-09 11:50:34 EDT

I tested the proposed upstream patch and indeed, it fixes the issue. I suggest to include the patch into the gtk2 update.

Comment 3 Benjamin Otte 2013-09-10 21:46:27 EDT

The patch has landed in GTK2 upstream, so it should be fine to include:

commit b32a9eb691920f21ad3b9127c833aaba15727c4b

    GtkTreeView: make tree expanding/collapsing more robust

    gtk_grab_remove() *after* we did the expanding/collapsing, otherwise
    grab_notify() might kick in and mess with our state. Fixes bug #675835.
