Original, more detailed, version of this comment lost due to launchpad
bugs.
This bug is present on Ubuntu 9.04 with the latest version of the
package from the repository installed (including stable, testing, and
unstable).
gustavo appears to be incorrect; this is not your run of the mill grab
pointer bug; the system responds to mouse events, you just can't see the
result.
sabby7890's patch is already applied. It is also a bad patch file
since it was produced without using "diff -u" and will therefore apply
incorrectly and without warning to a modified or different version of
the file.
I have changed the status from invalid to confirmed. This package is
broken, whether or not the problem exists in the application code
itself. Until a new package is released that has either a workaround
that actually works or depends on a new version of pygtk that fixes the
problem, this bug should not be closed.
The new package version alluded to in #369549 is not available to apt-
get in stable/testing/unstable/jaunty-updates. Perhaps this will change
soon. But until you can "apt-get update alarm-clock" and fix the
problem, this is an open bug.
