** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-panel Gnome panel starts to leak memory when using a custom image on the panel in Gnome 2.14 Steps to reproduce: 1. Open the System Monitor and take note of the memory usage of gnome-panel. (It should be about 15 MB) 2. Right click on the panel and go to Properties 3. Click on the Background tab and select a custom image. (I've attached one for testing) 4. Repeat for other panels if present 5. Leave the image set for 4-5 hours. You can still use the computer normally during this time. Just do not log out or reboot. 6. Open the System Monitor again and take note of the memory usage of gnome-panel. It should be approaching at least 100 MB if not more. (I've seen it close to 300 MB at times) This only happens when using custom images or themes that place an image on the panel. It also is not limited to Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 as it seems - to happen with Debian too. + to happen with Debian too. The problem seems to be solved in Gnome 2.16 + and 2.18
