Bug 628862 – x11-libs/gtk+-3.22.17 (and 19) - gnome-terminal emits "Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme" under wayland

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Georgy Yakovlev 2017-08-24 22:19:52 UTC]

Upstream bug describes it pretty good.
gnome-terminal emits "Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme" every time mouse enters or exits gnome-terminal window.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login into gnome session using wayland
2. Open gnome-terminal
3. Mouse-over the terminal, message gets into journal.
Actual Results:  
journal gets filled with similar entries
Aug 22 21:28:12 geo gnome-terminal-[1408]: Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme
Aug 22 21:28:38 geo gnome-terminal-[1408]: Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme
Aug 22 21:28:38 geo gnome-terminal-[1408]: Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme


journalctl | grep blank_cursor | wc -l
4756


so almost 5000 lines after only 2 days of usage on a fresh system.

Expected Results:  
Nothing should be printed.

newly added x11-libs/gtk+-3.22.19 is still affected by the bug.
and the provided patch applies fine and works.

can't reproduce with gtk+-3.22.26, looks like it's fixed upstream.
so I'll close it.
