Package: cinnamon Version: 3.0.2-2 Severity: wishlist
Hi. For an analogous rationale I gave for #824551, which I've quoted from https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/5306 I'd suggest to consider whether a cinnamon package (perhaps cinnamon, -core, or maybe even -desktop-environment) should possibly recommend the package gtk3-nocsd. Since cinnamon users typically want to avoid the ... uhm... "GNOME3 special 'features'", it seems natural that they also don't want CSD (i.e. client side decorations). With one of the next uploads gtk3-nocsd probably fixes most of the issues I've found with it (most of them minor rather minor things like graphical stuff). Some people may not want to have libgtk3-nocsd generally, preloaded... I've opened #824775, where we could discuss possible ways to have it only loaded for well known CSD- offenders, like eog, gedit and so on. I've CCed, Christian, the gtk3-nocsd maintainer (and as it seems most active upstream dev)...perhaps he has some ideas to share about this one. Cheers, Chris.
