I just ran an errand, and thought about that font workaround. The MATE
issue makes me doubt about running the code for all the flavors.
We know that the root cause is changes to the Ubuntu font. That font is
explicitly used for desktop in standard Ubuntu and MATE. But is it used
for desktop by any other flavor?
I fear that we for other flavors mess with their settings unnecessarily.
If the reset succeeds, it doesn't matter much, but maybe more flavors
have not enabled the required systemd integration, and then our
'temporary' change gets persistent. Which may or may not matter in
practice.
So maybe it would be better to only run the code for flavors where we
know that it makes a difference. Something like:
is_mate = False
desktops = os.getenv('XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP', '').split(':')
if 'MATE' in desktops:
schema = 'org.mate.interface'
is_mate = True
else if 'GNOME' in desktops:
schema = 'org.gnome.desktop.interface'
else if 'xxx' in desktops:
schema = 'yyy'
else:
return

Bug description:
I was upgrading from Lunar to Mantic the other day and left a couple
of applications open during the upgrade process. During the upgrade
the text in audacious became unreadable (I'll attach a screenshot) and
I seem to recall the title bar of Firefox being unreadable but the
contents of web pages still being readable.
