Package: mate-panel Version: 1.14.1-1 Severity: important Hello,
I've reported this upstream as #443[1] but the only reply I've gotten was a hostile one that mentioned that a "debian downstream report" is needed as "Debian Mate maintainers needs first confirm this issue before you file out a report here. Because debian packages are not our responsibility". Since then, I haven't received any response despite a couple of pings, so... here we are. Copying the original bug report: "The following seems to happen to me with MATE 1.14 on Debian stretch/sid (i.e. using GTK+3). This did not happen before this week's upgrades (i.e. with 1.12/GTK+2). If it matters, the theme I'm using is BlueMenta, although I've tried with other themes as well, just in case, but to no avail. Sometimes, the window list layout seems to corrupt itself, with many icons being hidden, or overlapping with text. Sometimes even the text gets hidden entirely. You can then recover by either hovering on each of the windows on the list, or by opening a new window, or closing one of the existing windows. See the attached screenshots: https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1330796/15784269/73b3eaa4-29ba-11e6-8ad1-a127a7976adb.png https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1330796/15784267/71c50c14-29ba-11e6-9b97-5cb0bc7920cd.png I've noticed it especially under the following conditions: * Set up a workspace with enough windows to fill the window list in the panel (at the point where the length of each window in the list is getting compressed) * Switch to an adjacent workspace, then switch back. The adjacent workspace needs to be empty or have 1-2 windows (with 2, the effect is a little bit different). When the adjacent workspace has >= 3 windows, everything seems to be normal. As you can imagine, it's a pretty annoying issue, bordering on making my desktop unusable." Severity set to important and that's even understating it perhaps -- application switching is probably a fairly essential part of mate-panel. 1: https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-panel/issues/443 -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=el_GR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=el_GR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mate-panel depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.26.0-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.20.0-1 ii libc6 2.22-13 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.14.6-1+b1 ii libcairo2 1.14.6-1+b1 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-3 ii libcanberra0 0.30-3 ii libdbus-1-3 1.10.8-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.106-1 ii libdconf1 0.26.0-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.34.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.48.1-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.20.6-2 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1+b1 ii libmate-desktop-2-17 1.14.1-1 ii libmate-menu2 1.14.0-1 ii libmate-panel-applet-4-1 1.14.1-1 ii libmateweather1 1.14.0-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.40.1-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.40.1-1 ii librsvg2-2 2.40.16-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libstartup-notification0 0.12-4 ii libwnck-3-0 3.20.1-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxau6 1:1.0.8-1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.0-1 ii mate-desktop 1.14.1-1 ii mate-menus 1.14.0-1 ii mate-panel-common 1.14.1-1 ii mate-polkit 1.14.0-1 ii menu-xdg 0.5 mate-panel recommends no packages. mate-panel suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
