Hello


I'm using Manjaro with openrc, which is a slightly off distro. I've been using Fireofox on winmaker for almost 2 years now on this platform. I did an upgrade and suddenly firefox is in complete disarray. It did update firefox and said it needed to replace package firefox-gtk with firefox

When it starts up it gets a bunch of these things

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: window-

controls.css:172:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk- icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs.css:116:15: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs.css:127:15: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk-icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs-darker- overrides.css:10:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk- icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs-darker- overrides.css:37:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk- icon-shadow'

(firefox:3778): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: tabs-darker- overrides.css:47:13: The 'icon-shadow' property has been renamed to '-gtk- icon-shadow'

The tool bar is now black fonts on black background. Same this with all the drop down menus. Select and cut and paste is not displaying and the scroll bar is also invisible.

I've tried deleting ./mozilla/firefox no change other than losing my bookmarks and addons

I see nothing in about:config that I can use to change the settings. In all these years I have NEVER seen anything from Mozilla act like this. I removed the firefox package and tried the binary from the mozilla website - no change.

Folks at manjaro thing we are looking at a gtk theme problem (REALLY NO SANE DEFAULTS) - and I think I agree but I don't use gtk-themes on winmaker.

I'm exasperated... and I need to get work done. Please help.

does anyone listen to this forum? I know I am not alone on this problem because the distro forums are exploded with firefox problems
