Package: metacity
Version: 1:3.17.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
When upgrading metacity, it pulled in packages but failed to pull in
gnome-accessibility-themes which broke the packages. After upgrading
gnome-accesibility-themes to 3.16.2-1 was able to upgrade and fix the
broken packages.
Note - I do not know whether it's metacity who's responsible or
gnome-themes-standard but one or the either is surely responsible.
Please change the package name if it's gnome-themes-standard who is
the culprit here.
Look forward to getting this fixed for everybody else.
