Build Identifier: 20100917-0705

I use Linux-10.04 with Gnome-2.30.2 (gtk-engines-2 => 2.20.0/gtk+-2.0 => 2.20.1)

From a fresh installation all work fine. After normal installation of some plugins the dialog 'install new software' appear blank with a strange gray rectangle.

The plugin in list look like invisible and not selectable for installation, if i press button 'select all' all hidden item can be normally select and i can continue with a normal installation.

I already try to use export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true or to resize windows, but nothing happen.




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Fresh Installation
2.Install some plugin (in different time)
3.Installation dialog became blank and i need to re-install eclipse.

Switching to a different (empty) workspace helps. There I get a (visible) list of different software packages.
Switching back to the old workspace the list was empty again.

I also encountered this problem with upgrade from 3.7.1 to 3.7.2 in old workspace.

I'm using the Clearlooks GTK Engine, but my Desktop is KDE 4.8.0. Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit.

The solution here works excellent! Thanks --> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=324729#c10

Really old bug report which hasn't been seen in years. Closing. Please reopen if you can reproduce with supported version.
