So to go ahead, is it mandatory to fix the bug with F13 right now as the application is working fine with F12 ?
I don't think there is a strong reason why we should rush to import this package into F-12 when it is apparent that this package won't work on F-13. Also anyway this package needs fixing for newer gtk.
Maybe I could make an explicit requirement to gtk 2.18.6 for F13, do you think that this could be a acceptable solution ?
It cannot be done. There is no guarantee that other packages built with newer gtk work with older gtk.
Yes, this will likely become an issue for other distros, too. If I fix the xml file manually, I fear that glade will break it again, so I believe the only choice is to move that specific ui code out into C.
On a side note, looks like gconf was suddenly labeled depricated for gsettings with 2.19. Looks like Gnome 3.0 is still a moving target.
