I have had this issue for:
1. gimp (sporadically)
2. shutter (all the time)
3. kicad
4. gedit
5. and probably other things I have forgot
Rebuilding the gtk-engine-murrine package with this patch fixes the issue. A workaround was to run the apps with cairo-trace appname.
Is there any chance we can patch the archlinux package with this?
Also note this comment about the fix, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk2-engines-murrine/+bug/1294699/comments/17
In the launchpad issue is mentioned this meta patch with a small description: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/265151655/murrine-ubuntu-debdiff
As a workaround, is there any way I can apply it on my system somehow?
