---------------
gtk2-engines-murrine (0.98.2-0ubuntu2.2) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Remove pango_cairo_update_layout.patch and revert to previous
    version of gtk2-engines-murrine. The patch caused text shadows
    to be very misaligned for Xfce desktop icon labels with several
    different themes (LP: #1598316)

Bug description:
  Impact
  ======
  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk2-engines-murrine/0.98.2-0ubuntu2.1

  The above SRU caused a major regression: On Xfce, desktop icon labels
  are now badly misaligned. This affects numix-gtk-theme which is
  included (but not as the default theme) with Xubuntu 16.04 LTS. Third-
  party affected themes include Arc and Vertex.

  Test Case
  =========
  1. In Xubuntu 16.04 LTS, open the Xfce menu in the top left corner of the screen.
  2. Select Settings>Appearance
  3. Select Numix.

  Do the desktop icon labels look ok or do they look like the screenshot
  posted in comment #17?

  Regression Potential
  ====================
  This obviously re-opens bug 1294699 but that seems to be a fairly obscure bug. Who sets their default system theme to a bitmap font in 2016? That regression is outweighed by breaking several popular themes.

  Original Bug Report and Followup
  ================================
  Upgraded my xubuntu 16.04 system on 01 Jul 2016.  The apt update included an upgrade to gtk2-engines-murrine.  However, after the upgrade and boot, the any desktop text, folder, launcher, etc. had a problem with the text and shadow being quite far apart.

  This bug affects themes that use the textstyle feature of the murrine
  engine on xfdesktop4. Ubuntu MATE 16.04, which also uses gtk2 but has
  caja draw the desktop icons instead of xfdesktop, does not appear to
  be affected (or at least not nearly as noticeably).
