- normal
After upgrade from Debian 8.1 to 8.2 I face the following problem: in gtk3 applications (nemo and transmission-gtk checked) there are blank spaces before menubar entries (http://i.imgur.com/DEbv6I2.png). Checked with Greybird gtk3-theme and some other themes from gnome-look.org (for example, CobiBird, Aurora), but it does not reproduce with Adwaita (standard fallback theme).
Also seeing this bug, extremely annoying, toggling the option to show icons in menu bars works around it but then you can't see icons in drop down menus anymore. Also broke on 8.1->8.2 update.
Kittyofthebox, could you please tell us, what should be done to workaround this bug? Some settingsd is gtk-3.0/settings.ini ..? Thanks in advance
I've identified the patch applied to the 8.2 release that causes this bug. It's listed in the
changelog for the package as the following:
* Added patch backported from upstream for one annoying bug:
- debian/patches/081_fix_huge_icons.patch (Closes: #773135)
This patch should be reverted in my opionion as they traded one annoying problem for some users
only to give another annoying problem to other users. This might need to be reported back to the
original bug report with gtk on their bug tracker as it looks like they're unaware of the
problems this patch has caused, bug report here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741259
According to the bug report this patch was made to scale down icons in poorly made icon themes.
Thanks.
I have reverted this patch and installed modified .deb packages. Now everything seems ok. Yours sincerely, Jayson Willson 12.09.2015 18:35, kittyofthebox пишет:
Could you please consider removing 081_fix_huge_icons.patch so as to fix this bug?
