Did an emerge --sync, followed by an emerge world This installed on the amd64 system the dev-libs/glib-2.24.1-r1 (I'm not using ~amd64 for it in package.keywords, so it's the stable version). Once I logged in xfce, the bug discussed here just happened: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-panel/+bug/503633 To solve the bug, one has to update xfce-panel to version 1.6.4, which is currently marked as ~amd64 (the current stable version is 1.6.2). Since dev-libs/glib-2.24.1-r1 has been set stable, xfce-panel-1.6.4 should also be marked stable, otherwise people will have the window borders bug when they run an emerge --world. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install the latest stable glibc on amd64; that is libs/glib-2.24.1-r1 2. Use the latest stable xfce-panel on amd64; that is xfce-panel-1.6.2 Actual Results: The panels in xfce got window borders, as shown here: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/37467747/shot.png Expected Results: Panels should have no borders!! To solve the issue, simply mark xfce-panel-1.6.4 stable on amd64 (and possibly on other archs as well).
I have glib 2.24.1-r1 and the xfce4-panel 4.6.4 installed and I don't see any window borders on my machine. if you could please attach the output of emerge --info to this bug. Also, what window manager and desktop manager are you using?
Hi Ross! The bug happens with xfce-panel-4.6.2 The solution is to install xfce-panel-4.6.4 (the one you have installed, that's why you don't suffer the issue!) xfce-panel-4.6.2 should be masked for users who upgrade to glib 2.24.1-r1 For the other question, I'm running compiz-fusion with emerald for windows, and the xfce-panel for "start menu".
Sorry I misread your bug report. I've looked at what's stable, and the combo that fixes this bug is marked as stable for most arches, so anyone with an updated system running arch should be fine. are you seeing this on your gentoo install? if so, I'd suggest an emerge --sync and a emerge -avuDN world and see if it is still occurring. also, please do attach the output of emerge --info to this bug. Thanks.
Created attachment 245236 [details] Emerge --info
Comment on attachment 245236 [details] Emerge --info Here's the emerge --info I removed xfce4-panel-1.6.4 ~amd64 from /etc/portage/package.keyworkds and then ran emerge -vuDNp world No downgrade to version 1.6.2 was listed, so it looks just like you said: the combo is stable on the tree. I just don't know how my system installed glibc without updating xfce-panel along it. Anyway, looks like it's solved. Thanks!
(In reply to comment #5) > I removed xfce4-panel-1.6.4 ~amd64 from /etc/portage/package.keyworkds and then > ran emerge -vuDNp world it's good practice to put both ~amd64 and amd64 in package.keywords. just putting ~amd64 implies that portage will only install it if it's marked unstable. Once it's stabilized, portage will try to find a different version. > Anyway, looks like it's solved. if you have permissions would you mark this as resolved? I don't have permissions to do it my self.
Sure, there it is. Thanks!
