). No missing or non-functional gui elements, no stream of error messages in the terminal, and no obvious crashes like in Arch. So maybe it is simply suffering from a lack of maintenance to keep it working with the latest version of some dependency, or something like that.

"BadDrawable" is some of the many error messages I get on Arch, so maybe I have the same problem you found a fix for...plinej wrote:download and install the new Libmowitz and the problem should be fixed.
