Howdy, I just upgraded my gentoo ~x86 system to use ruby-gnome2-0.19.0 and my apps that use datamapper are broken. Digging into it, it looks like if a datamapper model is accessed (either via auto\_upgrade! or just normal accessing), then the gtk window does not draw any children assigned to it. Here’s a small demo that triggers the problem: > Change USE\_MODEL to be false to show the demo without the problem. What I’m hoping is to find some advise on how to investigate this problem further. Also would be nice if anyone else with ruby-gnome2-0.19.0 and datamapper installed can run this test code to let me know if it’s an environment issue versus either one of the packages. I’m also asking about this issue on the datamapper list. Thank you, Roy ---

It will relate to Thread. You can find ‘Person.auto\_upgrade!’ creates a new thread. (FYI: Thread.list) Could someone look into the problem? I don’t have time to look into the problem. :\< glib/src/rbglib\_maincontext.c will help you. ## Thanks, kou ---

I’ve fixed it in trunk. ## Thanks, kou
