GTK3 can't resize treeviewcolumn

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Did a little more digging in, it seems that this commit 83e104b093f49ea452c25c370ce85cd247be4614 from https://github.com/GNOME/gtk.git fix the issues.
Tested on 14.04 32bit
Patch applied without any issues

Thanks for reporting and investigating this bug. Reverting the commit you mentioned breaks the GTK_POLICY_NEVER case for me (as mentioned in the commit message). Cherry-picking a couple of reverts from the 3.14 cycle seems to work though. Attached is a combined patch of those commits. I'd appreciate if you could test that one as well.

The attachment "0001-treeview-enable-column-resizing-with-horizontal-scro.patch" seems to be a patch. If it isn't, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are a member of the ~ubuntu-reviewers, unsubscribe the team.

With an extra backport, the patch at least builds on trusty.

Could you please add SRU info to this bug?

(The reporter of the duplicate bug [thanks again] added some SRU info there which you might want to base on)

it seems that this patch breaks the tests:

tbh not sure why :/

It's fixed in bzr. See the linked branch.

I don't understand why the work I've done on https://code.launchpad.net/~hackedbellini/gtk/fix_1427352/+merge/251508 was discarded.

The patch here and the testunit fix are basically a copy of what I've done there. Not saying that you copied it intentionally, but it is already there and merged since 2015-03-02).

My commit simply vanished from the repository: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gtk/ubuntugtk3trusty

No. I merged the two versions of the same fix and then uploaded it.

You are credited in the changelog. Look:

@laney: Oh, now I see my confusion.

I could not find my commit on "bzr log", but I just noticed that it actually has a merge you did there. I'm more used to git, where a merge will display the merged commits on the log, and after not finding mine, I thought it went to the trash.

Sorry about that.

Anyway, I still didn't get why you needed to do this: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gtk/ubuntugtk3trusty/revision/345

From what I can tell, it basically merged revert-better-resize-of-expandable-columns.patch and revert-use-minumum-natural-size-semantics.patch into 0001-treeview-enable-column-resizing-with-horizontal-scro.patch. Is that all or is there something else done there?

Also, one of those patches (don't remember which one exactly) also had a fix for the testsuit issue you saw here (and you fixed by doing this http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gtk/ubuntugtk3trusty/revision/346). Seeing that commit was one of the reasons I got confused, because I was sure I had fixed it before.

The following regressions have been found with this upload:

autopkgtest for deja-dup 30.0-0ubuntu4: Regression (Jenkins: public, private)

Can somebody check all of these?
Thanks,

They all look variously like test harness issues or false negatives due
to the basline being unclean.
