Package: gtk+2.0
Severity: important
The fix for Debian bug 307724 added a patch from gtk-2-6 branch to the
2.6.4 release for sarge. This causes the following bugs in Eclipse,
where keybindings can completely fail:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=111479
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=111514
The patch was to fix the following long-standing bug in GTK+:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109246
While we worked with GTK+ to fix this bug, Eclipse had a workaround
which conflicts with the patch. For 3.1.1 we disable our workaround if
GTK+ >= 2.6.8, but this check does not work with the patched version of
2.6.4 from debian. There is unfortunately no clean way to detect
whether the version of GTK+ is fixed.
I think the patch should be removed, or stable should be updated to
GTK+ 2.6.8. Patching back a very tricky and low-level X event handling
patch into a previous version just decreases the stability of the
toolkit.

I suppose the philosophies are just different between Eclipse and Debian,
which makes it hard for me to understand your position. In Eclipse this
would be viewed as a regression. If we have a patch that fixes some bug and
causes regressions, we would generally leave the patch out (or revert the
patch if we put it in).
Please feel free to talk to me on IRC (desudation).

This is definitely true. I have posted comments
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324336#c9) on the GNOME bug that
was opened.
cheers,
