Upgrading Debian 10 to Debian 11, three annoyances and a solution for one of them

The good thing I've found is how to get away with GTK3's "animations," which make the UI render somewhat visibly slower even in other aspects (like browsing Geeqie's images), despite xorg.conf settings that give me the best performance, as assessed by gtkperf.

Code:

# gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface enable-animations false
gtk-enable-animations=0

Apparently I got rid of this message popping up every now and then on some scripts (calling things like hsetroot, feh, I'm not sure which triggered it, but I'm almost certain it wasn't a single thing) by installing a somewhat "hidden" i386 package on Debian:

Code:

sudo apt-get install libgtk3-nocsd0:i386

I saw about it here:

I'm not aware of there being something like a "gtk-3.0-settings.d" to preserve settings.ini options between theme changes (including involuntary ones), so that's a work-around method, adding that to the session auto-start script:

Code:

! grep warps-slider $HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini && echo "gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false" >> $HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

But that of course only works after a new login (not mentioning...

Edit 21/03/2023: A new version 1.1.5 of Cremefraiche is available on rubygems.org.

Years ago, I wrote a ruby-program which converts Email to PDF, then ignored it.
Discussions of GTK3 and the pros and cons of the decisions taken by the Gnome- and GTK-developers awakened again my interest in the program, as it comes with an optional GTK3 user-interface.

Here is a shortened version of the old “Crême Fraîche Homepage”. If this program interests you, you can contact and...

[UPDATED] Fix some GTK3 new bugs/"features" with a few simple configurations

"Legacy scrolling". Back then clicking on the scroll bar meant to go about a page up or down, not that you magically know the exact content that is at that absolute point. Also "remove overlay scroll indicators", so the scroll bar is always visible and occupies a definite space, instead of sometimes overlapping content and making it harder to click, as the overlay pops up.
