Bug#270105: libgnome2-0: Default button focused but not reachable with [Enter]

Package: libgnome2-0
Version: 2.6.1.2-2
Severity: normal


In GNOME2 dialogues, the default button (as in [Cancel] [Apply] [[OK]])
cannot be accessed by pressing the [Return] or [Enter] key on the 
keyboard, even though it is visually highlighted. This is not only
inconvenient since it requires the user to switch from keyboard to
mouse, but it also questions the sense of highlighting a default
in the first place.

Forgive me if this is not the right package to report the bug. I do not
actually know which library is responsible for handling this, so I just
made a wild guess.


Kind regards


Andreas
