Bug#905473: mate-panel: various application tray icons not visible
Package: mate-panel
Version: 1.20.2-1~bpo9+1
Severity: normal
Various applications no longer display icons in the notification tray. Examples
include redshift-gtk 1.11-1 and blueman-applet 2.0.4-1.
This used to happen to a smaller subset of icons intermittently on Mate 1.16
(notably redshift-gtk), but it has grown to encompass move applications since I
installed 1.20.2-1~bpo9+1. There is no (related, that I can tell) console or
~/.xsession-errors output when these applications start up. Some cases
(blueman-applet) you can see the existing icons shift around for a moment,
suggesting something attempted to render.
I would have expected upstream PR 558 (https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-
panel/pull/558) to have helped, but it appears that this patch is already
present in the Debian package.
I am willing and able to build local backports from sid/testing as necessary to
help squash this bug. It's been driving me nuts for months (in 1.16).
