Could you try bump it locally to 3.3.2 and see if it helps? Created attachment 859450 [details]
emerge --info from the problematic VM
(In reply to Sam James from comment #1) > Could you try bump it locally to 3.3.2 and see if it helps? I will try that - I'd spotted there was a new upstream not yet packaged and was working towards testing it when I found (or re-found) this issue. Created attachment 859451 [details]
emerge --info from a similar VM that doesn't have the problem
(In reply to Sam James from comment #1) > Could you try bump it locally to 3.3.2 and see if it helps? I've not been able to build v3.3.2 as the build fails with "cannot find -liconv: No such file or directory" Significant progress.... I did a diff of the /var/log/portage/x11-wm:icewm.... log files for the two VMs. The only interesting difference was that the working system has USE=nls where the defective one doesn't. So I rebuilt icewm with USE=nls on the duff VM and it now displays titles correctly. I shall edit the bug title accordingly I've now reported this (with the newly acquired useful details) upstream and they've already fixed it in git! I shall turn the fix into a patch for the gentoo package and endeavour to get a PR submitted. Have you tested 3.4.1? |
