Bug Description

Bluefish only shows tabs as 1 space in the editor. The editor does not seem to honor the tab width setting. This is a change in behavior from Ubuntu 12.04.1.

I have found that if I compile from source, I can work around the problem. Here are the commands I used:

$ ./configure --with-gtk2
$ make
$ su
# make install

The --with-gtk2 switch makes the difference.

@Ryan Coe: I confirm your solution to fix the problem, probably an issue with GTK3

I've made a little (...) modification to the configure options, just so they are consistent with the existing install environment on Ubuntu:

./configure '--build=i686-linux-gnu' '--prefix=/usr' '--includedir=${prefix}/include' '--mandir=${prefix}/share/man' '--infodir=${prefix}/share/info' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--localstatedir=/var' '--libexecdir=${prefix}/lib/bluefish' '--disable-maintainer-mode' '--disable-dependency-tracking' '--with-icon-path=${prefix}/share/pixmaps' '--with-theme-path=${prefix}/share/icons/hicolor' '--with-freedesktop_org-menu=${prefix}/share/applications' '--with-freedesktop_org-mime=${prefix}/share/mime' '--with-xml-catalog=${sysconfdir}/xml/catalog' '--disable-static' '--disable-xml-catalog-update' '--disable-update-databases' 'CPPFLAGS=-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2' 'CFLAGS=-g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Werror=format-security' 'LDFLAGS=-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,--as-needed' 'build_alias=i686-linux-gnu' '--with-gtk2'
