[Bug 1499899] Re: Gvim displays lots of scary messages about UNITY_GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL

[Paul White]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Ubuntu 15.10 (wily) reached end-of-life on July 28, 2016.

I'm setting the status of this bug to 'Incomplete' as it's not seen any
activity for some time. If this is still an issue while using a
currently maintained release of Ubuntu then please let us know which
one(s) otherwise this bug report can be left to expire in approximately
60 days time.

Title:
  Gvim displays lots of scary messages about UNITY_GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in vim package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

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.
