Bug Description

Binary package hint: gedit

Version 2.16.1-0ubuntu2 / Edgy.

Repro:
* Start GEdit.
* Edit->Preferences
* Move the mouse pointer to the corner of the preferences window
* Click + drag

Current result:
Nothing

Expected result:
Preferences window should change size.

Note:
This works for other parts of GEdit (like the main window for example). It's a nuisance having to view the plugins tab through a keyhole.

I added a comment to the upstream bug with a simple patch fixing the issue. It was made against SVN trunk but it should be easy to use for the deb as well.

I created and related to this bug a Launchpad branch with the above mentioned simple patch. Upstream has talked about a larger plugin management change that will make this bug no longer applicable though.
