Yeah, I've never used the tool and am unsure to what extent it's still required in a GNOME desktop. It needs Design help. > Actually we now have two spots free: > https://people.debian.org/~smcv/temp/2025/1099579/after.png > (this is with 48.2-2) Yes, I confirm your count. Thank you very much for handling this bug. I like the result. Jeremy Bícha
