I'm attaching a one-line patch that seems to fix the issue on edgy. I've worked with GTK before but I'm fairly new to C. I used Google's new code search tool to see how other projects did it, and I found http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=+lang:c+gtk_about_dialog_new+show:YgUVlX7mpSA:7pXX9I15dr4:WJT02JZ6sT0&sa=N&cd=1&ct=rc&cs_p=http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnunet/GNUnet-0.6.5.tar.bz2&cs_f=GNUnet-0.6.5/src/applications/afs/gtkui/gtk26about.c#a0 for a project called GNUnet. The trick was to connect the "response" event to the gtk_widget_hide function.
Once again, I don't know much C, so I'm not sure if my modification will have undesirable implications. Someone with more experience needs to determine that. ** Attachment added: "One-line patch to allow closing of about dialog" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4685185/tsclient.diff -- "About"-window cannot be closed with "close" button https://launchpad.net/bugs/64206 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
