There's a candidate patch in the upstream bug, and the GNOME/GTK+
developers seem slow to review and apply it.
Any chance this can be patched in Ubuntu specifically? This is highly
visible and renders Ubuntu an unusable OS if you rely on remote
administering GTK+ apps that require drag-and-drop.
Is anyone going to fix this? It's getting bigger. Now, the fix no
longer works because other packages are starting to depend on the newer
libraries. For example:
root@dynamo-ubuntu:~# apt-get install libgtk2.0-0=2.20.0-0ubuntu4
libgtk2.0-bin=2.20.0-0ubuntu4 libgail18=2.20.0-0ubuntu4
Also Mr. Fulton should check his mailer.
Checked. Sorry about the noise.

KDE applications do well with drag and drop.
This is annoying.
Is there any workaround (besides using x11vnc as a server?)

Hi,
just wanted to ask, whether there is any progress in fixing this
problem... being able to drag and drop would make some tasks so much
quicker... sure you can always use mc on the shell for file management,
but when having a working desktop?
