Random addons blocking removing glyphs?

[keLston]

So this is an issue that's been driving me (and my guildmates) nuts.

Every time I want to try to remove a glyph (the shift-right click option), I get the error saying it's blocked and an addon is blamed. Each time it's an Ace related addon. For me it used to always blame Talented. When I run on characters that didn't run Talented, it would blame Ace3 itself. For my raid leader, it blames Skada.

Since I don't get a LUA error just the BLOCKED, I have no idea which addon is actually causing the issue mostly because the enabling one by one option came up inconclusive (it ended up going back and blaming random addons).

The search for this issue had a thread back in November that hinted at Auctionator, but I tried disabling that to no avail and that thread hasn't seen a post since then.

The problem is that any addon that uses a StaticPopupDialog (the window that asks if you really want to replace a glyph or not) will taint it.

This is a Blizzard problem and there's not much an individual addon can do about it.

However, I have a sort-of solution in the works in the form of a small library that replicates the SPD functionality and allows authors to easily drop it in their addon and replace the usage of the Blizzard one with mine.

It's a "sort-off" solution because it only solves the problem if all your addons start using it.

I am off to work in a minute, but I'll upload it tomorrow.

Been having those issues to, but it seems that doing a /rl and then right away try to remove the glyph usually works. (Not always thou, but usually)
