Bug Description

I created a UI using Glade. When I try to use it, I get a GLib.Error containing the message Unhandled tag 'packing'. That's it. There's no reference to the widget currently being parsed. I don't know how to get that information either.

This error message should contain that information. Of course, the real bug is that some widget isn't handled properly, but since I don't know which one and don't know how to find out, I can't be more specific.

It's also possible that this affects more than one widget, of course. If the error message includes the widget name or line number of the UI definition file that's currently being parsed, it'll be easier to identify.

This may or may not be a bug in Glade, but I'm unable to find out. The problem is with InfoBar. Glade adds

<child>
    <object class="GtkInfoBar" id="infobar1">
        <child internal-child="content_area">
            <packing>
            </packing>
        </child>

        <child internal-child="action_area">
            <packing>
            </packing>
        </child>

When you try to load the UI definition using Gtk.Builder.add_from_file, then it complains about those two packing tags. Commenting them out removes the issues. But of course, that means a lot of manual editing of XML-files all the time, so it's a very annoying bug.
