Package: kde-config-gtk-style
Version: 4:5.20.5-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
I have been hunting a bug that after this morning update it took me the day
long
and one of the visible effect was that it broke my vpn application that is
using yad
to display some simple windows and get some inputs.
At some point I discovered that insead of using some parameter who were
supposed to be either "ext" or "int" it used "WINDOW DECORATIONS RELOADED".
As the pacakge was using yad to display some simple input/input i tried to
launch
yad and discovered that for one user I had on the konsole
prompt> yad
WINDOW DECORATIONS RELOADED
I then discivered that any gtk3 application did write this message on stdout
(emacs
in partciular).
By chance I discovered that another user on the same machine did not suffer
this problem.
and finally found that removing rm -rf ~/.config/gtk* file did fix the problem.
prompt> yad
was then not showing any WINDOW DECORATIONS RELOADED message on output.
But as soon as I use systemsetting to configure application style, and in
particular
the bottom buton to configure GNOME/GTK applications, it
re-creates ~/.config/gtk* files and I start having the wrong behavior (e.g
select
breeze style), save
and again
prompt> yad
WINDOW DECORATIONS RELOADED
I started to see this behavior after this moring installation with 4:5.20.5-1
new pacakges.
Any application using gtk windows and using stdout to provide usefull data to
file
storage/pipes, may be broken.
