Running the latest nightly build, all menu separators (both normal menus and bookmarks menus that I've added) are missing. This is with the Clearlooks theme and the Raleigh theme (default on Debian). Clicking any menu produces a slew of:

(firefox-bin:3850): Gtk-WARNING **: gtkwidget.c:7322: widget class `GtkSeparatorMenuItem' has no property named `wide-separators'

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click any menu that normally has a separator
2.
3.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess this is probably similar to bug 409202 and caused by Debian 4.0/Etch/stable shipping with GTK 2.8.20 and Glib 2.12.4 back in April. I don't suppose there's any way to address it? I hope I'm not the only Stable user out there.

Not present in Kubuntu 7.10 (KDE 3).

Yes, this is due to using GTK+ < 2.10, which I also am trying to do. (Debian Etch.) I have a patch for this that I may try to submit, however the problem is currently moot as bug 418126 prevents running with < GTK+ 2.10 anyway now.

There is a greater discussion of this going on in bug 418885 right now.

Still present in a 3.5.x build?

Dead bug, Debian Lenny has been out for a while and < GTK+ 2.10 will unlikely be supported ever.
