[Bug 1506587] [NEW] Unity Desktop does not respect cursor theme after update

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After update on 20151015 at 9:54 EST Unity desktop no longer respects
cursor theme.

Ubuntu release is Wily (e.g. 15.10) beta.

Update contained the following packages:

Oct 15 09:54 hud_14.10+15.10.20151012-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
Oct 15 09:54 libhud2_14.10+15.10.20151012-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
Oct 15 09:54 libunity-settings-daemon1_15.04.1+15.10.20151012-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
Oct 15 09:54 unity-settings-daemon_15.04.1+15.10.20151012-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb

Instead of the correct cursor theme "Ultimate-white24" the default white cursor theme is
displayed on the desktop and most GTK3 applications.

Some applications such as Firefox still show the correct "Ultimate-white24" cursor as long
as the cursor stays in the application but changes to the default white cursor if the cursor
moves to the window decoration or desktop.

Unity Tweak and dconf-editor show that the cursor theme is set to "Ultimate-white24" and
the alternatives (e.g. update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme) also show the cursor
theme to be "Ultimate-white24".

At the Unity Greeter (e.g. Lightdm) the cursor theme is correct but it changes to the default
white cursor as soon as the login is started.

Let me know if I can provide any more information, screenshots etc.

Thanks
