Nothing wrong, that's the correct behaviour of GTK+ applications : in
SVN rev 38009 i set reactivity to <ENTER> and <SPACEBAR> and double

trees) weren't affected : tomorrow i'll investigate about how to fix
this.



IMHO the "correct" GTK behavior is broken then...
I'd personally prefer to have the frontend behave like the newt frontend in this respect, but I guess that is something to discuss with the team.

I'd certainly appreciate it if you would not change such behavior without discussing it first on the list.


I'll investigate and i'll report all the possible options for a patch before committing. One thing i'll have to investigate about is the possibility of having the <SPACEBAR> key switching checks and <ENTER> key activating the "OK" button in MULTISELECT questions.

Regarding this issue, i did some test in the past days but wasn't able to make the GTK frontend behave like the NEWT one; i also asked for help on the ML dedicated to GTK app developement, but received no answers. So, i propose to start applying the simple patch [1] i posted some days ago and see later what else can be done about this issue.
