Issue 28599: AboutDialog set_name is ignored (original) (raw)

Python 3.5.2 (default, Sep 10 2016, 08:21:44) [GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux Mint 18 and Gtk 3.

I run a python3 script that includes these statements:

import gi gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') from gi.repository import Gtk, GObject aboutdialog = Gtk.AboutDialog() aboutdialog.set_name('arbitrary') aboutdialog.run() aboutdialog.destroy()

The script name is displayed in the About dialog, while the 'arbitrary' name is ignored. This is inconsistent with python2/gtk2. If the set_name method/function exists, it should do something.

I have no way of testing this on any later version of python.
