Technical details: The original code loads GTK+ inside the Unity process. It causes the
gtk_initfunction to hang in a deadlock (See the backtrace here). I separated the GTK+ related code to a new executable (I'm not sure about Unity's directory structure so I bundled the executable in the library) and run it in a separated process (pass input withargvand get output frompipe()-dstdout) when opening a dialog.
