Bug#842990: vim-gtk3: gvim has the smallest possible text window

[Ayke van Laethem]

Package: vim-gtk3
Version: 2:8.0.0022-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When running gvim (from the vim-gtk3 package), the whole text window is
invisible. It looks like it has shrunk so small to be unusable. See the
attached screenshot. I have tried running gvim using:
8
    gvim -u NONE -U NONE -N

Additionally, these errors are printed to the console:

(gvim:5113): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_size_request: assertion 'width >=
-1' failed
*** BUG ***
