Subject: 23.1; Highlighted region after dragging scrollbar
Date: Fri, 13 Aug 2010 20:12:45 -0400

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Dragging the scrollbar causes the region between where the cursor was and
it's final position to be highlighted.

Please upgrade to Emacs 23.2, where this should be fixed.

Or indeed Debian's 23.1+1-6, stuck in unstable for 6+ months:

This is a known problem with Emacs 23.1 and newer Gtk+ versions, it has been 
fixed in 23.2.

You can set GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS to 1 in your environment, or just for Emacs:

% GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 emacs ...

to work around it if you can't upgrade to 23.2.
