Bug Description

This is a pretty serious issue, it basically prevents new actions from being defined and makes easystroke useless for new users. Changes necessary were rather extensive (easystroke has been ported gtk3), so sorry about this happening so late in the cycle.

--- Original Bug Report ---

I would like to assign touch (Ctrl+Alt+Right, Alt+F4 etc etc) woth moves with Easystrokes, as I did with previous versions. THe option is still there but do not work any more (impossible to enter the keys to use)

Thanks for reporting. I just upgraded to raring to check this out. This is pretty bad; if I had to guess, I would say the underlying cause is gtkmm not being compatible with the GObject object system. The only solution I can think of right now is porting a bunch of c++ ui code to vala, but I'll investigate. Importance should be set to 'High'.

I don't know if it's help you, but as I was unable to set movements, I took the easystroke config file from another equipement, and replaced the one in raring, it wordked great, I can use the movements of the other computer on raring, even if I still can't add new ones.

This should be fixed in git now; I've uploaded a rc for a new version to the PPA, which is getting built right now (i386) / should be built in a few hours (amd64). Please test, the fix needs to get in before beta freeze on Thursday.

Tested on an amd64 machine, the bug is fixed. I'll be able to test it on an i386 machine tomorrow (if no one does it by then).
Thanks for the quick fix, Tom.

Thanks for testing. I don't see any reason why i386 should be any different from amd64 in this respect, so I'll try to get the fixed sponsered now.
