Bug#908705: g_icon_to_string output includes some garbage prefix
Package: libglib2.0-0 Version: 2.58.0-3 Severity: important Hi, one of the last releases in the last couple of weeks has broken the g_icon_to_string function. Previously, it did exactly what https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/GIcon.html#g-icon-to-string said and returned a proper short name or absolute path. Now, it returns some nonsense, after this pattern: . GThemedIcon mpv mpv-symbolic That's crap. For the example above, /usr/share/applications/mpv.desktop contains: Icon=mpv And mpv is what I expect (following documentation) Repro: Run icewm-menu-fdo (from icewm-common package) and see a lot of those strings there except of the plain icon name. Regards, Eduard. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.18.5 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- Die Zeit ist schlecht?

Control: severity -1 serious Control: forwarded -1 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/1513 Ok, let's bump the severity to keep the new glib version from migrating to Testing. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
