Confirmation on this bug. The affected applications on my box is the list: '(brasero evince).

After researching with the developers upstream, this bug has been worked around and seems to be a bug from gtk3 instead of gcin's.

This patch should "fix" the bug: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/469992/

I cannot reproduce this bug, so thanks a lot for handling it with upstream.
Please test gcin-1.6.5-2 from [testing] (it contains your patch) and let me know if it solves your issue.

It indeed fixes my problem starting evince. But I think we need the original poster to confirm as well.

No, we don't: your bug is fixed; if Henry's bug is different (which I don't think is very likely), then he should open another bug report and provide more info. (We should avoid discussing different bugs in the same bug report; it makes it a nightmare to understand the issue(s).)
