Title:
Gvim displays lots of scary messages about UNITY_GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL
Status in vim package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When launched from a terminal the widely used text editor gvim
displays lots WARNING and CRITICAL messages such as:
** (gvim:3608): WARNING **: (../../../lib/unity-gtk-menu-
shell.c:176):unity_gtk_menu_shell_show_item: code should not be
reached
** (gvim:3608): CRITICAL **: unity_gtk_menu_shell_handle_item_notify:
assertion 'UNITY_GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL (shell)' failed
This did not happen in 15.04. It is a most embarrassing bug. Gvim is
an essential tool for many users.
I am using Ubuntu 15.10 Beta 2.

I expected to be able to use Gvim. Now Gvim pollutes the terminal with
scary messages, and disturbs the messages shown by other programs
running in the terminal.
