RHBA-2013:0493 - gtk2 bug fix update

Synopsis

gtk2 bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated gtk2 packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

GIMP Toolkit (GTK+) is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Due to a recent change in the behavior of one of the X.Org Server components, GTK+ applications could not use certain key combinations for key bindings. This update makes GTK+ compatible with the new behavior, which ensures that no regressions occur in applications that use the library. (BZ#882346)

  • Previously, when switching between the "Recently Used" and "Search" tabs in the the “Open Files” dialog box, the "Size" column in the view disappeared. This update ensures the column is visible when the relevant option is selected. (BZ#889172)

Users of GTK+ are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
