[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 403135] Re: Notification area icon wrongly rendered/uses bg_color as a background (multiple apps)

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

Except for the tone, I would have to agree with the complaint that all
those bugs shouldn't have been massively merged in the first place. We
do not merge all segmentation faults, or all out-of-memory hogs, do we?
Just because the symptoms are the same does not mean that each and every
affected application suffers from the same actual bug cause. And in
fact, they don't, at least not all of them.

So IMHO, those bug should have been merged per applications, or maybe
per UI framework, not per the whole Ubuntu.

Bug description:
The following bug may possibly depend on my setup, if so just tell me how to check this. I am using banshee 1.4.3-5 (in ubuntu karmic) and its notification area icon has a black background, unlike other applets that have a transparent background.

I attach a screenshot.

This bug is noticed when:
a) Themes set a background image in the gtkrc
b) If users set a custom image for the panel from Panel Properties > Background > Background Image

***This bug affects all themes , but has become easier to notice since the default light-themes use a background image.***

Also , see , comment #99 , might be a regression in gnome-panel since Karmic release.
