After updating packages¹ on my Debian unstable laptop yesterday, the
transparent borders on RGBA windows are back².
Specifically if I open a Sakura³ window, the borders are see-through.
I am running xmonad 0.13-6+b2, libghc-xmonad-dev 0.13-6+b2,
libghc-xmonad-contrib 0.13-1+b2, libghc-x11-dev 1.8-3,
libghc-x11-xft-dev 0.3.1-11+b5.
Looking in ~/.xsession-errors when I open a Sakura window, I see no
errors from xmonad.
(Closing the window I see "user error (Error in function
getWindowAttributes)", but I guess that's not important.)
Looking at the changelog from the xserver-xorg-core package, I see this
interesting entry:
[ Timo Aaltonen ]
* New upstream release.
* 07-glx-do-not-pick-srgb-config-for-32bit-rgba-visual.diff: Add a
patch from upstream to fix potential issues with mesa git.
Sounds like that could be the reason.
Does anyone else see this? Any suggestions on how to debug/fix it?
I'm as clueless as last time⁴.
Best regards,
Adam
