[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 403135] Re: Notification area icon wrongly rendered/uses bg_color as a background (multiple apps)

[markb]

@ Konstantinos, Ubuntu updated gnome-panel to 1:2.30.2-0ubuntu0.2 a few
days ago which has overwritten your last fixed ppa package
1:2.30.2-0ubuntu0.2~ppa1. So this bug has returned until you provide
another update.

Bug description:
The following bug may possibly depend on my setup, if so just tell me how to check this. I am using banshee 1.4.3-5 (in ubuntu karmic) and its notification area icon has a black background, unlike other applets that have a transparent background.

I attach a screenshot.

This bug is noticed when:
a) Themes set a background image in the gtkrc
b) If users set a custom image for the panel from Panel Properties > Background > Background Image

***This bug affects all themes , but has become easier to notice since the default light-themes use a background image.***

Also , see , comment #99 , might be a regression in gnome-panel since Karmic release.
