Yesterday, I updated to gtk+-3.14.9 ,

This new unwanted pkg created a dir under /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11
& a symbolic link 'default->Adwaita', which changed my mouse cursor.
Not liking the new cursor, I did some research, found the dir responsible,
did 'mv default default-dft', restarted X & restored the old cursor.
This looks to me like a bug. Does anyone have comments before I file it ?
Yeah, I don't think any cursor package should be setting the default on
its own.
Looks like a bug. Most people don't notice because they have a cursor
theme set in the preferences of their desktop environment and thus the
"default" symlink does nothing. But that doesn't mean it should be set
by a package.
